I may not have all the time I thought I had.

Strange about learning; the farther I go the more I see that I never knew even existed.

I am afraid. Not of life, or death, or nothingness, but of wasting it as if I had never been.

There are so many doors to open. I am impatient to begin." --Charlie Gordan
