    C.C. Campbell
    “I have worn my heart on my sleeve because it is too painful to carry it inside my chest.
    When I carry it on my sleeve, it has the freedom to exist, to beat in rhythm with the Universe.
    I feel like I'm more alive and yes, there are those who out of curiosity will say or do things that can cause its delicate existence to feel pain and sorrow.
    I would rather deal with that, than to put it back in its little cage where it knows nothing else but the rhythm of my body and my Ego.
    My heart was never meant to be part of my Ego.
    My heart was meant to experience the Soul.”
