be brave enough to break your own heart.

i just wrote a massively long post that was on the more emotional side of the spectrum than what i typically post ( a result of a serious non-james-brown related funk and a pensive subway ride) and blogger had the good sense to get messed up and lose my post. i'll take that as a sign.

and with that, i leave with a picture of my brother's christmas present in progress and my favorite quote of the week found in this article, via jayda.
