words.

"Life and death, I am ashamed
That thou hast power to shake my manhood thus,
That these hot tears, which break from me perforce,
Should make thee worth them."
- King Lear

i was reading through Lear and i came across this.
how sad and pitiful.
funny how an unfilial and evil daughter can break such a (supposedly) strong and powerful man and King.

but i guess this is how it goes.
you can pretend to be strong,
pretend not to be aware.
but deep inside -
who knows of the skies that pour,
of the storm that rages on?

you see, words are powerful.
they scar.
and they scar, deep.

it's back to school tomorrow.
sometimes i wish i could quit life.
haha or maybe life was a game and i could click on stop, exit.
and then shut down.

but i cant jolly well cant pull out the plug, can i?

anyway,
it was nice talking to Rachel while waiting at church.
the lucky girl has got one more paper to go.
all the best!

and i better start doing something constructive too.
