elephants eggs world
The world is hollow. It's a lot to take in. Like cracking an egg and finding nothing inside. Or a full grown elephant.
powerful people solitude
I like people. I like watching them. It's just that I'd prefer to do it from a mile away using very powerful binoculars.

I hate clowns. You can't see what they're thinking.
love-you thinking arrows
It's true: Everyone needs a reason to stay alive -- someone who justifies your existence. Someone who loves you. Not beyond all reason. Just loves you. Even just shows an interest. Even someone who doesn't exist, or isn't yours. No, no! They don't even have to love you! They just have to be there to love! Target for your arrows. Magnetic Pole to drag on your compass needle and stop it spinning and tell you where you're heading and...Someone to soak up all the yearning. That's what I think.
beautiful strong clever
Not everyone can be strong or clever. Not everyone can be beautiful. But we can ALL be brave!
