“The storm is out there and every one of us must eventually face the storm. When the storm comes, pray that it will shake you to your roots and break you wide-open. Being broken open by the storm is your only hope. When you are broken open you get to discover for the first time what is inside you. Some people never get to see what is inside them; what beauty, what strength, what truth and love. They were never broken open by the storm. So, don't run from your pain — run into your pain. Let life's storm shatter you.”

Neurotoxin.
Due to high mortality rates, you may be reluctant to participate in the new initiative.
The enrichtment center assures you this is a strictly selfish impulse on your part, and why can't you love science like [insert co-worker's name here]?”

“Oh
The way you broke her heart
And shattered her life
With your empty promises
And biggest lies
The trust is gone and
The hope is lost for ever
The feeling of emptiness
And the pain of being alone
Never leaves her heart
She is living a life
Of heartache and despair
For you broke her heart
And shattered her life”
