Here's to spring, to all we've loved and all who loved us,
to all the lovers and the love they made.
Nothing that was between them was a mistake.
All that we did for love's sake was not wasted, and will never fade.

Broke out my HS senior yearbook this weekend, at Reid's request. Funny, looking through the things people wrote there---both the actual close friends, and the acquaintances that I had write just to keep a record for myself, of the small things that happened which I'll inevitably forget about until I open the book again.
I grow more and more convinced that "Lost" is really just a filmed version of "Myst."
There was a note in the yearbook from a girl who I had a huge crush on, and have since...forgotten about? Not really---I am still aware of her existence, though we haven't talked in several years---but I had _forgotten_ in some significant way until I read through the yearbook. I guess that's why we keep these things, hmm?
For the first time, there is something indescribably exciting about a world outside of this one. I walked out under the streetlights in the parking lot, and almost figured something out, but then Daniel came and gave me a ride the rest of the way home. I'm kind of glad it got interupted---I'm not quite ready to figure it all out yet. Something very exciting about it, though.

I've been having a few near-epiphanies myself. There's some sublime something poking into my view, I just can't figure it out yet.
And for the record:
I know all about the shield, but I couldn't just give her that versus Bob Egan with Mark-Taper Forum, or the Slonz with her Nano-Bots, or the sheer strength of Paula Turner. She needed a complete set of armor beyond just the shield.
Though, I know, the shield is the cool part.
And you're writing a play of the Illiad? Can I see it some time?
Everyone is having epiphanies. Or near epiphanies. I never have near epiphanies. Does this mean I'm dumb?
....I just realized I'm dumb.
Epiphany!
