I had an automated blogroll here, powered by Google Reader, but Google, in its near-infinite lack of wisdom, killed Google Reader.

All she wants is to hide her scarred face. All he wants is to take the perfect portrait.
Who are you, that you should forget the Lord your maker, who has stretched forth the heavens, and laid the foundations of the Earth?
Doesn't the sun always come up again?
You cannot be yourself until you know who you are.

Fear is a powerful enemy. But it’s a powerful ally, too.

Sometimes, life just isn’t like a storybook.
