There was a lot of pain expressed here. Pain I recognize. Life is a hard battle.

yeah, it’s familiar, I’ve heard these words before, felt these feelings before, come to peace and conclusions, yet I can’t even. Thanks for posting.

this is by my friend Kate Rigg, who went to high school with me in Toronto many years ago; she is awesome and if you ever get a chance to see her comedy act or her socio-politcal music commentary group Slanty-Eyed Mama, GO!
