Writers Are Affected
In spite of everything, remember, when life’s dead-end is staring you in the face:
What the caterpillar calls the end of the world, the master calls a butterfly.
-Richard Bach
Your moment is coming, in spite of everything…
Nonetheless, if nothing else, please know that you are more than allowed to:
Risk more than others think is safe.
Care more than others think is wise.
Dream more than others think is practical.
Expect more than others think is possible.
-Claude Bissell
You are allowed to be you, if nothing else.
At any rate, frankly, when the easy choice is to walk away:
When you feel like giving up,
remember why you held on for so long in the first place.

A Community is here to help you, if you chose to stay, when the easy choice is to walk away.

No, not wicked really. Does wicked still mean sweet? Cause then I mean yes…. Professorish professors change their minds a lot. (I’ve not experienced this side of the professor as seen in the first comment.) I didn’t recognize you, Duke. If you’re indeed, thee.

Oh yes, it’s me. Sometimes I’m wicked and sweet at the same time.
