“One of the hardest things was knowing that these other people were risking their lives for you when they didn't have to. But they said they were doing it for religious reasons and I shouldn't take it personally. That helped some. They had silent prayers every evening. I found that hard to get used to at first, because it reminded me too much of that shit at the Center. It made me feel sick to my stomach, to tell you the truth. I had to make an effort, tell myself that this was a whole other thing.”

“I left a stone in the sand where a feign once stood. Graceful days and heavy haze as I stood in so much pain. Feet locked, face pushed, shoved - I loved. I did. But I grew, flew and went on through as I realized how you could love someone so. Beauty lies beneath the reality that we never need to be loved, but we like to be loved. We only need to give, become, love, drift and carry through an endless forever. They’ll be here, there - somewhere, and it’s beautiful once you realize the feeling of selflessness.”
