  What, that unavoidable thing that takes from us the one thing most of us cherish dearly? Yeah, real strange we fixate on that.

      I had a 97 year old tell me last week she hope she dies soon. Eventually we will all have enough when we are suffering in lots of pain.

      Death ultimately isn’t something to be afraid of, it becomes the manner of death which gains significance.

  People have forgotten humor, poetry and romance. I love a good sword fight as much as the next man, but there’s more to life.
  
  It’s my desire to enter the Bards College. My parents are hesitant, but I pray they let me attend.

  The owner class has made life a meaningless farce of exploitation for most. No time or resources to indulge hobbies, maintain our bodies, even to have a family, though we are encouraged to have them without the resources to so we may create a new generation of desperate, hopeless capital batteries for the owner class to consume.

  A meaningless farce that death is the only escape from.
