Notes from my 12th trip

Afrose, that choice you made, to be a poet, when it mattered. That was one of the bravest things I've ever witnessed.

It is when the gods are cut down to mere men with which you can relate, that is when genuine respect begins.

Porn is basically the miseducation of how to be w/ another person sexually.

I am just trying to figure out how you fit into my life, Marcella. I don't know how yet, I just know that I need you. And let's be honest, you're a strange piece. That's why I love you.

Michael, let's be honest, you're a LOUD person, not by anyone's standards but your own. 

Remember you were born that way for a reason. You have something to say that the world needs to hear.

If you are my friend, it is because, generally, I believe in you.

We chose a difficult path, Flora, but I wouldn't want any other partner to watch my back.

I wonder if we will all realize that we are just vessels, passing thru. 

The stomping is to teach me what it feels like to be a person who is annoyed by the things I do.

As their sparring partner, you prepare them for battle.

There are a lot of different loves in the world, all of them valid, all of them needed. But you give them up if they would hurt the one you care about most. That is your sacrifice for your beloved.

              It's about learning and going back to share your lessons.

If you disrespect women in any way, even ways in which you confuse for strength - to hit on them for the sake of your ego, to strike them, to hurt the heart. You are a coward. And there is nothing I despise more in this world than cowardice.
