Time heals the wounds unhealable!
Feel free to talk to me if you ever need someone, I know how it can feel to be lost, to be found, to be disappointed and hurt. I also know that it can always get better!

Just finished "Good Omens," by Terry Pratchet and Neil Gaiman. Very good book, and very funny. It reminded me of the movie Dogma, if any of you are familiar with it.
I'm about to start "Invisible Monsters" by Chuck Palahniuk. I really like his books (I read Choke, Fight Club, and Diary). Haven't picked up a book from him in awhile, so I thought why not.

Just finished The God Delusion by Richard Dawkins, and I highly recommend it to any and everyone who pays much mind to the questions of life and such.
Also just finished reading The Man-Kzin Wars by Larry Niven, whose entire known space universe is a goldmine of good stories for sci-fi lovers.
The atoms that make up you and me were born in the hearts of suns many times greater than ours, and in time our atoms will once again reside amongst the stars. Life is but an idle dalliance of the cosmos, frail, and soon forgotten. We have been set adrift in an ocean whose tides we are only beginning to comprehend and with that maturity has come the realization that we are, at least for now, alone. In that loneliness, it falls to us to shine as brightly as the stars from which we came.

The Mountain and the Valley by Earnest Buckler
The great artists of our time are the ones who created something timeless. But it was never them defining it that way.
Everyone has a story. What's yours?

The Alleluia Files, Sharon Shinn
If you took a chisel, and cracked yourself open
Letting light into the corners of your mind,
Peering inside your soul,
What would the world find?
Deep on the inside, where all your hopes happen,
All your hidden dreams die
Smiles that never happened? Tears you meant to cry?
