“What I did mind were the nights when I was confronted with myself, the nights I had no girl to distract me, no drug to satisfy me, the nights when I actually had to think about life and face it. On the nights when I had to look straight at who I was, who I had become, inexplicably, I would punch myself in the face as hard as I could. I would pummel my face until I fell asleep, eyes bruised and full of tears.”

“New Perception Lately, I have a new perception in my eyes. I want to see you. Can I see this through? This glorified surrender in the air. The words come to me in my dreams. What I don’t Understand, why me? Lord, you guide what I write. It’s time people know these are your words, you want them heard. So, today, I write what came to me last last night. We all need a new perception in our eyes. You’re telling me to continue and I will. There’s a tear from your blessings in my eyes. In Jesus name. Amen.”

“In the midst of the chaos, King Dastur and Queen Elara summoned their most trusted maidservant, Lyra. With tears in their eyes, they handed her their precious child. Dastur's voice was firm but filled with emotion as he spoke, "Take our son and flee. Keep him safe. Reveal his true identity to no one." Lyra, a loyal and resourceful servant, nodded, understanding the gravity of her task. She wrapped the baby in a thick cloak and with a final glance at her beloved king and queen, slipped out through a hidden passageway.”

“...Gizos began to cry. Not a little, a lot. Since that day I've never seen a boy, or a man, cry that hard. Now I know such a thing could do the world good, not the crying, not simply the body and spirit's self-recognition of pain, but the publicness of it, the body and spirit's communicating to another's body and spirit in one and only one language--that of deep, deep emotion--between the flesh of two free bodies. I say 'free' here because it's true--what is freer than that, freer than one body welcoming and receiving another's in a state or condition so unchanged since the very beginning of bodies, a state or condition that has continually been jailed time and time again since that very beginning?”

“On the subway I felt I had a secret knowledge - I probably wasn’t the only one - a secret reason to travel, knowing that this exercise was ultimately for me, all these encounters brought with them lessons on how to live. And also how to shut up. In these years of increasing volume I had so many great reasons to stay quiet and bear witness.”
