- In response to: "Who are you?" I get déjà vu quite a lot. My life must be pretty repetitive. I'm a good judge of character and sanity. I can often tell what type of person you are within about five minutes of meeting you.

Before you can take care of anyone else, you have to take care of yourself.

- Earliest Memories

My earliest memory is from when I was two years old. I was playing hide-and-seek with my sister. I ran into my parents room and tried to power slide under the bed. The bed was one of those old metal framed ones, with the springs underneath. I hit my head off the frame, knocked myself out and woke up outside the emergency room of the hospital with my mother holding a blood soaked tea towel to my head.

- A Recent Scare

When I was a boy I used to lie awake some nights and think about the world, the solar system and the universe. I could feel myself floating through space, adrift, watching the world from the heavens. I began to realise how finite the world and all it's life forms are. It made me think of my own mortality in the most clear and frank way. After that I would frequently be overcome by an almost paralysing awareness that my end and the deep unknown thereafter were out there waiting for me. I had long forgotten this feeling until last week, when it returned as I was drifting off. It terrifies me to know that I shall end, never to think or feel again, that all of my personal experience will vanish forever. The finality of it scares me more than anything I have ever known.
