My theory is that ...Why does one smoke cigarettes?<br /><br />My theory is that one is trying to "suck up" the poison of their reality.<br /><br />It allows one to turn inward.<br /><br />And be in control of their own death.<br /><br /><br />I applaud you for not succumbing to this Russian past-time. But I have to admit that ever since I moved back here, I smoke. <br /><br />I don't like it.<br /><br />I cough a lot lately. <br /><br />My lie of coping has become a crutch for coping.Omgrrrlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06478395354251391121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3232964598879818194.post-67809502675520005502011-10-24T09:03:46.254-07:002011-10-24T09:03:46.254-07:00"I'm going to watch with my eyes closed&q..."I'm going to watch with my eyes closed"....brilliant. She is such a smart little girl.<br /><br />You're doing a great job keeping her safe, Marco. It is so hard to lie to them, but there are some things that they should be protected from until the last available moment. In the end, it is so worth the effort.<br /><br />The picture of E is so very beautiful today. Please tell her that she is growing up to be a very pretty girl and that I can see in the picture how smart and strong she is.livhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00091094639074377780noreply@blogger.com
