I did not need to know if he could love me. I needed to know if he could need me. - Jonathan Safran Foer

I hope that one day you will have the experience of doing something you do not understand for someone you love.

I missed you even when I was with you. That’s been my problem. I miss what I already have, and I surround myself with things that are missing.

Ray Black was in prison, so we weren't able to talk to him. I did some research on the internet and found out that he was in prison because he murdered two children after he raped them. There were also pictures of the dead children, and even though I knew it would only hurt me to look at them, I did. I printed them out and put them in *Stuff That Happened To Me*, right after the picture of Jean-Pierre Haigneré, the french astronaut who had to be carried from his spacecraft after returning form the MIR spacestation, because gravity isn't only what makes us fall, it's what makes our muscles strong.
