My appreciation of Life is learned in the darkness In the beginning there was dark before light Suffering it seems defines in its roundabout way all that is worth living for As vital to human existence as air or water Its in the break of heart the agony of defeat that a soul is tempered To know this is a step To live this is release |

Haven't we all been in the dark, whether we welcome it or not. It's when we find our way out, that we have come full circle. None the less, I always enjoy your dark side. |

In order to appreciate the true beauty of the light you must first sit in absolute darkness, and this you do so well. |

I thought it was funny too...but? rumor has it I'm "easy". Was wondering if you ever caught that flick, "The Tao of Dave"--quite funny, but not without insight. also, where is brian madden? You two would get along famously! |
