The truth is, I've always been wracked with self-loathing and terrible, paralysing depression.
Self love is the elixir of an immortal heart.

Sink, suffer, self-destruct Rise stronger, reconstruct
To achieve greatness it simply starts with self-belief.
We can bear to be deprived of everything but our self-conceit.
I was always a self-proclaimed poor slider.

They saw me. Milton's smile curled off his face like unsticky tape. And I knew immediately, I was a boy band, a boondoggle, born fool. He was going to pull a Danny Zuko in when Sandy says hello to him in front of the T-Birds, a Mrs. Robinson when she...
When I learn the meaning of a word, I know the word; but when I say to myself, 'I know the word,' there comes a reflection of the word back from the mirror of my mind, making a second impression, and after that I am at least not so likely to forget i...
