There are places in this world that I want to visit alone. There are places in the world I won’t share. There are places in my mind that belong to me alone and I’ll show them to no one of my accord. But there are places I have that I give of freely, because I need to vacate that place. And I will give them to you all and you alone as you’ve been to them all before. Criticism is for those who don’t create; who lack the need to purge. But we understand, we bleed the same blood. And we create for ourselves, but hold nothing back.
