We are all needy, all vulnerable, all terrified that perhaps that person has an excellent reason to withhold affection. We shape our purposes to make ourselves worthy and often do not see until much later how it was love--or perhaps the lack of it--that both picked us up and dropped u.. | Kevin Hearne | ||

I saved a princess and blew up a superweapon, got a medal from the same princess, fireworks in my honor and everything. That could tur.. | Kevin Hearne | ||

| dc1043b | suspect most people have someone like Beau Thatcher in their lives--a person standing in between who you used to be and who you want to be, guarding the wall and proclaiming that you shall forever be imprisoned by their expectations and obligations. Crossing to the other side will always be a struggle and fraught with dangers that may leave scars. But, oh, the reward when you leap over that wall or break through it and shed the burdens of t.. | Kevin Hearne | ||
