"Our lives are geared mainly to deflect the darts thrown at us by the laws of probability. The moment we're able, we insulate ourselves from random acts of hate and destruction. It's always been there - in the neighbourhoods we built, the walls between our houses, the wariness with which we treat the unknown.
Ond person in six million will be struck by lightning. Fifteen people in a hundred will experience clinical depression. One women in sixteen will experience breast cancer. (...)
A day in which nothing bad happens is a miracle, a day in which all the things that could have gone wrong didn't. The dull day is a triumph of the human spirit, and boredom is a luxury unprecendented in the history of our species"
Quote from 'all families are psychotic'

What better joy in this life than to bear a child
creating beauty in a woman as she shows her body
when the child is growing inside
The joy shines through as she struggles
while becoming a mother preparing for this difficult job
that must last forever
A pregnant woman is beautiful
as there is no greater joy on Earth
and anticipation grows
A pregnant woman ponders the impending arrival
making the reflections on her face surreal
as her body grows
I aint apologising pixie
