That was quite an amazing week.

3 Anger

  • 2. I turned to music originally because of my past and needing a release or an outlet to get out anger or frustration or hurt.
  • 3. Anger is implanted in us as sort of sting to make us gnash with our teeth against the devil to make us vehement against him not to set us in array against each other.

4 Anniversary

  • 2. Marriage is the most natural state of man and… the state in which you will find solid happiness.

  • 2. It seems a fantastic paradox but it is nevertheless a most important truth that no architecture can be truly noble which is not imperfect.
