“Kind words are salve to a cankered soul; spread generously.”

“I must be ever so careful to remember that my pain is a precious salve that when used in the service of others can heal a thousand wounds and more. And I must likewise remember that if I do not use it as such, I have done nothing more than wound myself yet again.”

“I’m nothing but a thought in the mind of God,
I’m Satan’s slave; I open my eyes and flee,
I’m mankind, I worship, and I kill,
All in the name of Love, hate
I’m the slaughtered lamb, I’m luzbel
I’m the one paying for your sins,
I’m your son; I am your mom and dad,
I’m the one, who worships God,
I’m a killer and a saint,
I’m just a thought in the mind of God.
I laugh and I suffer, I get killed, and I kill others,
I’m nothing but a thought in the mind of God
I’m compassion and rage, I love, I cheat, and I lie,
I tell the truth, I’m dead, I’m alive,
I’m in hell, the place people called paradise,
I am just a thought in the mind of God”
― Quetzal
