Super Important

Donate

Allow me to function as a beggar here for a moment. Donate according to your generosity right here. But maybe you want to see the appeal letter first?

Raison d'etre

I have found that the very feeling which has seemed to me most private, most personal, and hence most incomprehensible by others, has turned out to be an expression for which there is a resonance in many other people. It has led me to believe that what is most personal and unique in each one of us is probably the very element which would, if it were shared or expressed, speak most deeply to others.
—Carl Rogers

We may misunderstand, but we do not misexperience.
—Vine Deloria

What's madness but nobility of soul at odds with circumstance.
—Theodore Roethke

You own everything that happened to you. Tell your stories. If people wanted you to write warmly about them, they should have behaved better.
—Anne Lamott

I think that if a person doesn't feel cynical then they're out of phase with the 20th century. Being cynical is the only way to deal with modern civilization, you can't just swallow it whole.
—Frank Zappa

Rake in the profit
You didn't need the fam'ly
You betrayed me first...

Skeletons in closets
Touch the sacred and taboo
Before I was born

Sell out family
Get some dead and some angry
Laughing to the bank!

Trailer prayers reek of
Things I can not speak of here
Let us prey, my love...

Promised me shelter
Offer good till I go out
Awakened Buddha

Five hundred fifteen thou!
Richer than sin, don'tcha know?
Jubilee justice?

Hatred tango tears
Two many lives apart
Unraveling web
