“The Price I Pay (The Sonnet)
I spent my life in the depth of heart,
So my social skills are a little lacking.
Either they want me to be deep always,
Or they simply call me rather cheesy.
Whenever I try small talking as human,
I fail and fail again most spectacularly.
That's the price I pay for being your rock,
A timeless pillar unfit for warmth and amity.
Mine is not to ask why, mine is to do or die,
A path in which I turned my life into an idea.
Still it'd be nice to be treated as a human,
It'd be nice to feel the gentleness of another.
There is no greatness without weakness.
Greats must persevere no matter the coldness.”

“The price is certainly high for people who don’t know Christ and who live in a world where Christians shrink back from self-denying faith and settle into self-indulging faith.

“The Price
Love will probably kill me,
Long before I fell out of it,
Or madly in with another.
It will rush like a red hand,
With doubt and steady stillness,
Of another lover into something else.
It will kill with everything,
But a feeling of full self-despair,
And a moment of bitter nostalgia.
Love will probably kill me,
Leaving everything I am behind,
Or giving me anything I owe it in return.
It will blush my cheeks with tenderness,
Wailing my veins into stray lines
Of another’s love, an undying lie.
It will be neither slow nor gentle,
But rushed into words and memories,
And give out nothing but love, again.”

“The price of a successful relationship is devotion. Devotion is, essentially, commitment to something we value. What are we devoted to? Surely not what another person wants. I think most people would agree that being devoted to that would be problematic even with the best of people. So, what exactly are we devoted to? We are devoted to the well-being of another person. And we are devoted to the well-being of the relationship. We honour the other person’s value and the relationship’s worth.”

It was about a hundred dollars, a lot of money in those days. It was the kind of tank you could actually get inside and ride in. He played in the box it came in. It taught me a very valuable lesson.
