Making inanimate snowmen isn’t helping our children make the right kinds of friends: they need to learn the hard way that all their attachments will melt away, that everyone must face life alone. ↗

To be an outlaw you must first have a base in law to reject and get out of, I never had such a base. I never had a place I could call home that meant any more than a key to a house, apartment or hotel room. … Am I alien? Alien from what exactly?
