"We were talking about the love we all could share when we find it To try our best to hold it there with our love With our love we could save the world if they only knew Try to realise it's all within yourself No one else can make you change & to see you're really only very small & life flows within you and without you We were talking about the love that's gone so cold and the people Who gain the world and lose their soul They don't know they can't see are you one of them?..." - "Within You, Without You"- The Beatles; George Harrison

*At first I thought, if I were Superman, a perfect secret identity would be "Clark Kent, Dentist," because you could save money on tooth X-rays.

Greed I will gladly accept the other six deadly sins heaped upon me if we can find some way to obliterate that word from from our speech, memory, and history. I will do this willingly because I know that the other six will have no teeth if this word is gone. luvndrumn
