If you are chronically down, it is a lifelong fight to keep from sinking

You know you've completely descended into madness when the matter of shampoo has ascended to philosophical heights.

Very early in my life it was already too late.

Doing nothing is opting for the sweetness of stillness...Instead of fighting with that which you cannot control, you might as well just see it through.

I need the thing that happens when your brain shuts off and your heart turns on.

It can also be so much in-between
