"How do you go on, when in your heart you begin to understand…there is no going back? There are some things that time cannot mend. Some hurts that go too deep, that have taken hold."

"It’s so hard to forget pain, but it’s even harder to remember sweetness. We have no scar to show for happiness. We learn so little from peace."

As he defends the federal gay marriage ban, Solicitor General Paul Clement wants you to forget everything he said last week about the federal health care law.
Congress has no constitutional authority to punish people who don’t want to have health insurance, Paul Clement argued last week before the United States Supreme Court. This week? The heralded attorney is arguing, to another panel of federal judges, that Congress has plenty of constitutional authority to punish people who don’t want to marry someone of the opposite sex. Last week, Clement defended states’ rights and labeled as “unprecedented” the federal health care policy. This week, he says that Congress can dictate terms of a federal marriage policy over the objections of states which have legalized same-sex marriage.

Why must you go
an alchemist conjured from ancient times
turning everyday words into golden rhymes
there is no magic, of course I know, but
why must you go ?
Why must you go,
like the colors of autumn bringing delight
that fade away with the dying of the light
leaves that fall when the cold winds blow
why must you go ?
Why must you go
you who can always make me smile
and believe the impossible for a while
we only trade illusions, but even so
why must you go ?

"
They tell me I can’t love you,
Because we’ve never touched.
True I’ve never held you,
Or gazed into your eyes,
Have never kissed your sweet lips,
Although I have heard
your gentle sighs
But I have touched you in places,
No one ever has.
I have touched your heart,
your mind, your soul,
And never told you lies.
I may never hold you,
Or ever be entwined.
But I will always have the best of you.
Forever in my mind.-Nanc

I will curl myself up like this when I hurt or cry, feel sad, scared, and/or am in any kind of real distress or pain. How utterly human to return to the fetal position. It is when we need to feel safe, small, and be comforted the most. Mothers womb was the safe dark place we knew, it is encoded in us I think. So, I am seeking the Embrace og Tenderness that is a “Mothering” or as I think of it, a Nurturing Force. Strong arms, strong presence, curling into them… so many do not realise that a hug is the right kind of embrace we all need at these times. When we do not have that we need nurturing words.-Starra Neely Blade
