“But deep down inside of me I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that this requires so much more courage than pretending I am fine.  To live is to suffer but to deny the reality of life and to force all of us to face that reality alone while in each other’s company for fear of being perceived as less than is madness.  And worse; it’s a lie.”
