"New beginnings and new shoots Spring again from hidden roots Pull or stab or cut or burn, Love must ever yet return."

Previous Quote

Stupid word, that. Period. In America it means 'full stop,' like in punctuation. That's stupid as well. A period isn't a full stop. It's a new beginning. I don't mean all that creativity, life-giving force, earth-mother stuff, I mean it's a new beginning to the month, relief that you're not pregnant, when you don't have to have a child.
