“sometimes i wish i could walk around with a HANDLE WITH CARE sign stuck to my forehead. sometimes i wish there were a way to let people know that just because i live in a world without rules, and in a life that is lawless, doesn’t mean that it won’t hurt so bad the morning after. sometimes i think that i was forced to withdraw into depression because it was the only rightful protest i could throw in the face of a world that said it was all right for people to come and go as they please, that there were simply no real obligations left. certainly deceit and treachery in both romantic and political relationships is nothing new, but at one time, it was bad, callous, and cold to hurt somebody. now it’s just the way things go, part of the growth process.”
