It's no secret I have waged a personal war with depression these past few years but I always said that it was more of an awakening to the world around us. It is sad when you see the passing of someone so special like Amy Winehouse and Heath Ledger in 08. But it hurts so much more when you see what has happened in Norway. My thoughts are with those poor people right now but it is nothing new. Kane Killed Abel after all. His own brother.
I suppose the point of this blog, is to just tell anyone that may read this, strength is needed but not might. fighting is needed but not violence. You need strength to accept each other for what we are, we need to fight to keep our borders open. Our personal borders. Our fears of the unknown should be replaced with the desire to know more about that which is so scary.

I say: please don't turn your back on me and in return I will never turn my back on you. I don't care where you are from or where you were born. You will always be welcome, you will be met with a smile and a greeting. In the end, when the illusions of possessions, wealth and status are faded....all we have in this world that is truly worth a damn is each other. Love each other and make tomorrow better than today.
