    Possibly twilight makes blackness dangerousDarkness. Probably all my encounters Are existential jambalaya. Which is to say, A nigga can survive.

The names alive are like the namesIn graves.

    Here's the insane thing about resuming your old life when it's nearly ended; it is business as usual. Your heart may be broken, your nerves may be shattered, but the trash needs to be taken out. Groceries must be bought. You have to fill your car with gas. People still depend on you.

    Embracing fear isn't about being fearless. That leads to recklessness and complacency. It's about learning how to mitigate risk. I've faced death many times, and I suspect I will do so again. The potential for disaster always exists. We master it not by ignoring our fears, but by refusing to let them dictate the course of our lives, Instead of running, we must meet our fears head-on. We cannot allow fear to control our lives. We must control fear.
