Ok.

Things are going to be ok.

Let me tell you a story.

In the laundry room at my apartments there are boxes and bottles of laundry detergent, bleach, and fabric softener. It hasn't always been like this. When I first moved in nobody left their laundry supplies. If anything was left it was a few parcels of "Watchtower." My laundry room is located in a seperate building perhaps fifteen paces from my backdoor. Sometimes there is a light on at night which I can see from my kitchen window but sometimes not. What I am trying to say is the laundry soap, we just leave it in there because it's easier than bringing it to and fro our places. We leave it there because we've learned to trust one another and we've learned to trust everyone else.

I like this place. "I don't know where it's likely to go better," as Frost would say.
