I am me. That’s all I strive to be but I would be lying if I said that’s all I want to be. I want to be hope, to be light, to be dark, to be love when the time is right and hate when the time is right. I want to be life while I have it and remembered when i don’t. We can’t have everything we want, but I intend to try nonetheless. My name is James, and this page is simply a blog, a place for me to express my thoughts where no one else listens. In such ways is truth best told. reader onlineTumblr (3.0; @ranandom)http://ranandom.tumblr.com/<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lzay0koOJo1r5i4kyo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://ranandom.tumblr.com/post/36498786276http://ranandom.tumblr.com/post/36498786276Sun, 25 Nov 2012 04:03:16 -0500“‘Girl!
