I rarely cry. I save my feelings up inside me like I have something more specific in mind for them. I am waiting for the exact perfect situationand then BOOM! I'll explode in a light show of feeling and emotion - a pinata stuffed with tender nuances and pent-up passions
Everything is negotiable. Whether or not the negotiation is easy is another thing.
As you get older, the pickings get slimmer, but the people don't.
