I want to grow a flower for every time someone tells me F*** you. Then I ll go back to that person and pin the flower on their lapel in a gesture of friendship. And while they are looking down on it in astonishment, I ll bunch up my knuckles and punch them in the face.

I Want Two apply for a job at our country’s largest funeral home, and then wear a suit and noose to the job interview.

This is part of what a family is about, not just love, but letting others know there s someone who is watching out for them. It s what I missed so much when my mother died what I call your spiritual security knowing that your family will be there watching out for you. Nothing else will give you that. Not money. Not fame.

The Love Mindset
You enter the forest
at the darkest point,
where there is no path.
Where there is a way or path,
it is someone else’s path.
You are not on your own path.
If you follow someone else’s way,
you are not going to realize
your potential.

More than just someone to lay down with, is a spirit to pray up with.
