‘Every storm brings with it hope that somehow by morning, everything will be made clean again. And even the most troubling stains will have disappeared. Like the doubts over his innocence or the consequence of his mistake. Like the scars of his betrayal or the memory of his kiss. So we wait for the storm…

desperate – prayers
“There is a widely read book which tells us everyone is a sinner. Of course not everyone feels guilt over the bad things they’ve done. In contrast there are those who assume more than their share of the blame. There are others who soothe their consciousness with small acts of kindness; but by telling themselves…
desperately
“It’s an odd thing to look back on the world, to watch those I left behind. Each in her own way so brave, so determined, and so very desperate. Desperate to venture out, but afraid of what she’ll miss when she goes. Desperate to get everything she wants, even when she’s not exactly sure of…
desperate – thoughts
“It’s a shocking moment for each of us. That moment we realize we are all alone in this world. The family we take for granted could one day abandon us. The husband we trust so implicitly might betray us. The daughter we love so deeply perhaps won’t return to us. And then we could end…
desperate – couples
“Have you met the perfect couple? The two soul mates whose love never dies? The two lovers whose relationship is never threatened. The husband and wife who trust each other completely.

A feeling so intense it resurfaces, even though we have tried so hard to keep it buried. Of all emotions, passion gives us a reason…
Desperate Faith
Why do we fight so hard for control? Because we know to lose is to put our fate in the hands of others, and what could be more dangerous. Why do we try to define people as simply good or simply evil? Because no one wants to admit that compassion and cruelty can live side…
"So, which "R" you filled with?" and Why I love… Kill Bill
THE BRIDE: “Looked dead, didn’t I? But I wasn’t. But it wasn’t from lack of trying, I can tell you that. I’ve killed a hell of a lot of people to get to this point, but I have only one more. The last one. The one I’m driving to right now. The only one left….
"Laugh. Laugh. God is the funniest man in the Universe."
“So I do know what it’s like… to love somebody who doesn’t deserve it. Because they are all you have.” “I want rules. And boundaries. Because what I’ve learned is that, without them, all life is, is a series of surprises.” – Excerpts from Running With Scissors
