You could go church and you could describe your worst behavior, your worst self, and despite your worst behavior you would be forgiven and then redeemed and then accepted back into the community through communion. So you didn't have to carry this burden your entire life. Once a week you went someplace you went someplace where you could really look terrible and be loved despite how terrible you were.

I say never be complete, I say stop being perfect, I say let... lets evolve, let the chips fall where they may.

Since change is constant, you wonder if people crave death because it's the only way they can get anything really finished.

There are worse things than finding your wife and child dead. You can watch the world do it. You can watch your wife get old and bored. You can watch your kids discover everything in the world you've tried to save them from. Drugs, divorce, conformity, disease. All the nice clean books, music, television. Distraction.

Some people are just born human, the rest of us, we take a lifetime to get there.

You have to give up! you have to give up! You have to realize that someday you will die, Until you know that, you are useless!

I need to rebel against myself. It's the opposite of following your bliss. I need to do what I most fear.
