Unfortunately for us, along the way to good things there are many hurtful and negative things.  I for one am willing to take those chances - that's primarily why I am spilling my heart out to you right now.  Then Zurd turns to head for the rest of the group and strides away from Payne - his heart aching for something he can not have. Life is hard sometimes, he thinks. Best to just let ones dream go every once in a while.</blockquote>
