Is this really as amazing as people say it is or is it just over rated??

Yes. Well, Fitzgerald is as good as he's made out to be, I don't know how hyped Gatsby is? It's his most accessible probably. Digestible length. A lot of people study it in school too and so actually understand a lot of the nuances. I think The Beautiful and Damned is better, personally, but yeah, Gatsby is still highly recommended reading.

Wow! Amazing! I love the line containing: “love and hate mating". Absolutely brilliant!

Beautiful :)

People throw meanings, words and quotes around like issued free condoms.

I see now how in order to really stay true to oneself, one has to take the time to dig deep into matters and get prepared to delve into deeper matter!

I no longer want to be fed the lies that creep up from this world, nor do I want to feel a part of a 'family' that I do not hold.

What is mine is treasured beneath my soul and there lies fortune untold. I seek the truth, my truth and 'blessed' by a young mans' thought. I now teach myself how to let go and to be that sacred spawn.

Here I am blissful to say the least but harmonious in the yeast; yeast of life and the poisonous pleasures that lay at bay. Oh I won't go astray, however make hay where one should lay.

This world is not for me to stay and nor is it here for me to pray. I have woken up, had a stroke but now I refuse to choke!

Dry and empty in the realisation of my thoughts, but triumphant in my ideas of what can, is and will come to be. A change has come and my journey forth has just begun.
