With Great Power Comes Great Responsibility | Control

I am moving on to my next Buffy Essay – A Leap of Faith – A Slayer’s Journey from Darkness to Light.

Buffy: No, it doesn’t stop! It NEVER stops! Do-do you think I chose to be like this? Do you have any idea how lonely it is, how dangerous? I would *love* to be upstairs watching TV or gossiping about boys or… God, even studying! But I have to save the world… again.

Becoming Part 2, Season 2

I confess I’ve lost control. I let my guard down, I let the truth out.

– Garbage, Not Your Kind Of People, 2012

Dating is such a strong word.

Krissy: You’re dating a new guy?

Jeff: Whoa. Dating is such a strong term. I’m fucking the same guy and I happen to know his name is slightly more accurate.

Check and Mate

Jimmy: I just know how to point at people and say “fuck me” and The older I get the less effective it becomes.

Jeff: I take inspiration from Miss Monroe. If you can make a boy laugh you can make him do anything.

Jimmy:…….

Jeff: Fine. Don’t believe me. Two lawyers this weekend. Check and mate.

Second Chance | Follow The Yellow Brick Road

My road to redemption that I had imagined to be so long and immensely painful was just that – imagined.  My friendships are stronger then I had ever imagined.  The forgiveness I have received will not be forgotten.

Walking backward from my road to Hell, I found a shiny yellow brick road.  The barriers only existed in my mind.  The balance and the harmony that I strive to return to is right in front of me. It all begins with a single step and a Mind Without Fear. 

Last Night

If only time would stand still. Even if it was just that one moment to be relived over and over again. With you.

 I can only dream.
