An SMS Text I Received Today
The rain wont stop, its been coming down for 2 days. When I was a kid I would often go out to my back yard and stand under the rain, as if it were to wash away
I felt clean, that is one thing I still love about the rain, after a long down pour and the sun finaly shines through everything looks clean. The streets shine
rain drops and everything has the smell of nature, fresh and clean like if everything was given a new begining. Somethimes life is so beautiful it overwhelms me
that I have to sit and be consumed by all it's beauty.
Entre deux coeurs qui s’aiment, nul besoin de paroles.

Whether true or false, what is said about men often has as much influence on their lives, and particularly on their destinies, as what they do.

Written by a Friend in 1996
i am reading a book
in it there is a character
an old man
who spends all his days sitting around with pulleys and pipe
inventing interesting things that no one can really use
but he is optimistic
and that is his role in the village
the optimists
so even though his inventions have no use
the village has a use for him
his wife spends all her time in the fields and tending the kids
she does all the work to keep them alive
while he lounges and thinks up new ways to get water to flow uphill
and keeps the village pleasantly optimistic
it was not mentioned
but i am sure his name was ellis
goodnight love
What Women Want
Gabriel: Women make me angry, because they don't want honesty.
Gabriel: Tell her she's chubby and she gets mad, but it is the truth.
Ellis: Women want security: she might be chubby but she wants to know that you still love her anyway.
Ellis: Be tactful; be sensitive.
Gabriel: Lesson learned. Thanks.
