Any day of the week I would choose to be "out" with others and in touch with myself... then to be "in" with others and out of touch with myself.

The.
World.
Is.
Not.
A.
Safe.
Place.

The first time I got onstage was when I was about 5 years old. It was at a church social, and I had a poem to recite.

I give thee what is most my own - A Dedication by Francis William Bourdillon

And the poem, I think, is only your voice speaking.

هی فلانی! زندگی شاید همین باشد؟
یک فریب ساده و کوچک
آن هم از دست عزیزی که تو دنیا را
جز برای او و جز با او نمی خواهی.
من گمانم زندگی باید همین باشد.
