Love anything and your heart will be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact you must give it to no one, not even an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements. Lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket--safe, dark, motionless, airless--it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable. To love is to be vulnerable. ~C. S. Lewis

"Sometimes I feel like Mario when he falls into the room that doesn't have an exit. But from time to time, I have this feeling, almost a thought, that says,"Maybe everything's going to be okay...huh?" - B. M.
