On drugging pain with patience
"There are souls that are created for one another in the eternities, hearts that are predestined each to each, from the absolute necessities of their nature; and when this man and this woman come face to face, these hearts throb and are one; these souls recognize "my master!" "my mistress!" at the first glance, without words uttered or vows pronounced."

I'm stll waiting for Mrs P.
to call me master.
Wow. Talk about sappy. I must say, however, Dickinson must have been referring to Britney Spears and K-Fed ... oh, wait.... Never mind.
The words, "master" and "mistress" had a way different connotation in the 19th Century, but, yeah...
im enjoying this book, surprisingly. better than jane austen, in my humble opinion.
but, it is, nonetheless, romantic girly fluff.

Wow. Nice resolutions...although a friend of mine once told me she does not believe that you need a specific point in your life (eg, New Years) to change yourself. While i sit here and root for all those out there making their resolutions, I say, to myself, that as soon as i find something about myself i want to change, it'll happen then and there.
