21 years of quick reflection revels little for me. So here are some quotes, because quotes are good.
"The eye-it cannot choose but see; we cannot bid the ear be still; our bodies feel, where'er they be, against or with our will."

"Our sanctuary of this high-rise
Our steeples our billboards
Our slogans our converts
Oh don’t forget to buy this T-shirt
As you leave
And open up the offering box
And give until it hurts
Show me an open heart and we’ll steal it away
Cause eternity’s on up for sale for a small fee today"
-Andrew Schwab
"The hardest thing in life is having someone you love die in your arms, but the easiest way into death is dying the in arms of someone who loves you."
-Unknown
"She dances in the moonlight
Collecting drops of the earthy dew
Celebrating her exit
From the benign sense of self she once knew
Raising her heavy glass
Her cup now spills on her skirt
And as she cuts her knees in the dirt
She prays for the hourglass to flip and reverse"
-Project 86
