"Compassion hurts. When you feel connected to everything, you also feel responsible for everything. And you cannot turn away. Your destiny is bound with the destinies of others. You must either learn to carry the Universe or be crushed by it. You must grow strong enough to love the world, yet empty enough to sit down at the same table with its worst horrors."

Sometimes I feel this way, about to be crushed by the Universe. And somehow, there is always someone close by to lighten my burdens. I have the most incredible, selfless and loving friends a girl could possibly ever want. To those of you who loan me their dogs to relieve my stress, drive into town just to spend the day, answer my phone calls at all hours of the night, and every other countless thing done on my behalf, I thank you. Honestly and from the bottom of my toes. Grateful times eighty-five for the people I am lucky enough to claim as friends.To feel unconditionally loved and supported is an empowering experience and therefore I feel this quote is applicable. Thanks for that, George Lucas.
