My seed was cast on shallow soil, and I grew into the thornbush that is burnt beneath the sun.

The wonderful poet Kahlil Gibran is attributed with saying "Out of suffering have emerged the strongest souls; the most massive characters are seared with scars."
Sam Beam said "have you seen Jezebel, she was born to be a woman we could blame."

Sometimes I wonder why my soul doesn't feel strong. I sure as hell don't feel "massive"I know I have the scars, but my soul just feels beat. Perhaps it is because I've always found someone to blame. Like this mythical Jezebel. If I spend more time looking at me perhaps I will find the truth.

"Yesterday we obeyed kings and bent our necks before emperors. But today we kneel only to truth..."-Kahlil Gibran
