I feel the life slipping out of me. When the pain comes, I cry out, but there is no prayer in it, only fear. I kneel and recite my office and the Rosary but the words are empty - dry gourds rattling in the silence. The dark is terrible and I feel so alone. I see no signs but the symbols of contradiction. I try to dispose myself to faith, hope and charity, but my will is a blown reed in the winds of despair. ↗

When I saw 'The Player', I came out with knots in my stomach because it was so true to my experience. ↗

The last show we played, I was straight as a die. It did feel weird not to be hiding behind alcohol or dope, but being focused was... good. ↗
