The Poet: Robert Service, "Prelude"
*"Prelude"* "In youth I gnawed life's bitter rind And shared the rugged lot Of fellows rude and unrefined, Frustrated and forgot; And now alas! it is too late My sorry ways to mend, So sadly I accept my fate, A Roughneck to the end. Profanity is in my voice And slag is in my rhyme, For I have mucked with men who curse And grovel in the grime; My fingers were not formed, I fear, To frame a pretty pen, So please forgive me if I veer From Virtue now and then. For I would be the living voice, Though raucous is its tone, Of men who rarely may rejoice, Yet barely ever moan: The rovers of the ... read more

"That's Where You Begin Again..."
“When we’re headed toward an outcome that’s too horrible to face, that’s when we go looking for a second opinion. And sometimes, the answer we get just confirms our worst fears. But sometimes, it can shed new light on the problem, make you see it in a whole new way. After all the opinions have been heard and every point of view has been considered, you finally find what you’re after - the truth. But the truth isn’t where it ends, that’s just where you begin again with a whole new set of questions.” - Dr. Meredith Grey, “Grey’s Anatomy” “The closer you look, the more complicated it g... read more
