Jenna Starborn

A truth that no one knows is still the truth.

We cannot go backward. We cannot erase time and events. But we can go forward, hand in hand, hope in our hearts and love lighting our way.

I was Amazement--I was Desire--I was Ecstasy and Rapture and the slightest bit of Greed.

Love is a popular romantic notion that leads to nothing but its own brand of misery.

Yes, Jenna, I love you with all my heart. And with my atoms and molecules and electrons and whatever further breakdown you require.

My love for you is elemental and immutable, and it will sustain me until I die.

I am who I am, born that way, and will die that way.

Manufactured--synthetic--even virtual, if that is what you turned out to be--I would love you.

Your wedding completely changes the direction of your life, you know, no matter how greatly you desire it. I think that moment of doubt and faintness comes from all those imagined and now impossible futures all pressing in on you at once. It is your last chance to experience them, you see, and they all want to be lived at that moment.

If mankind's greatest achievement is to produce more spaces for mankind to live in, I do not think I am so impressed.
