Starting Over: I've conceived an idea. A potentially powerful idea. There's this concept that's held aloft in the culture of idealicly "manly" men that a beard is a symbol of strength and masculinity. Well how would anyone know that I've earned my beard? How should another person know that it's a mark of strength? In this day and age of fashion decisions and fads, I want my appearance to mean something. I didn't choose to be where I am today. Every single day right now is a struggle the likes of which I have never known. But I get to choose how I meet my foes. I get to choose to shake in my boots or charge forward headlong and meet challenges face-to-face. I've decided that from this day forward: I will swear an oath to myself. If I can't look into my own eye in the mirror at the end of the day, and truly say I've tried hard to further who I am as a person: then the next morning I will shave my beard again. I start over today: no weakness allowed. Nothing but upward movement. If you see me with a beard, you can know that every day I've had it has been a day I have grown as a person. I will grow stronger, smarter, better, happier, and become a more fulfilled human being. So it is sworn. Let me be labeled "oathbreaker" from this day forward if I don't prove it so. "Once more into the fray, Into the last good fight I'll ever know, Live and die on this day, Live and die on this day."
We'll always have Paris.

I wonder if you miss me. If you do, I wonder how much. I wonder if you think you understand how much I’m hurting: how deep the roots ran. I wonder if you’re sorry. I wonder if you want to change your mind. I wonder what you think of me and I wonder what you’ve told your family. I wonder if you know how little I feel like I have left. I wonder if you really grasp how much you meant to me. I wonder if you know how much weight I’ve lost, how I’m wasting away and unable to stop it. I wonder.
Love Reign O'er Me - The Who
I didn't have the courage to send this back, but Quadrophenia is a great album and I hope you listen to The Who more now.
This is horrible.
I wasn't supposed to be going through this alone. I'm terrified.

The Weakerthans – “Pamphleteer"
Why do I still see you in every mirrored window, in all that I could never overcome?
