You were dead, you were sleeping the big sleep, you were not bothered by things like that, oil and water were the same as wind and air to you. you just slept the big sleep, not caring about the nastiness of how you died or where you fell. me, i was part of the nastiness now. far more a part of it than rusty regan was.

Stop watering things that were never meant to grow in your life. water what works, what's good, what's right. stop playing around with those dead bones and stuff you can't fix, its over...leave it alone! you're coming into a season of greatness. if you water what's alive and divine, you will see harvest like you've never seen before. stop wasting water on dead issues, dead relationships, dead people, a dead past. no matter how much you water concrete, you can't grow a garden.
