I thirst for the first words to wield

Who is to say what holds truth for any of us? A lost love, an old friend, that boy or girl you met last week. Where does this go and when does this end? What is to make you, you? Let us gamble a bit on the works of oneself and test your knowledge on the subject of effort. Test well and never give up, never sleep and eat sparingly. Choose your advisers well and watch the poison words of the snakes in the grass. Satan is among us and unhappy with the virtues you practice. He wishes to turn you to him and longs for your self destruction. Let your love inspire those and inspire yourself.
