I used to name things like that, but I don't anymore. When they get
stolen, or destroyed, or become the object of hatred of another for
irrational reasons, the loss is reduced.

I don't think the rest of the world is out to get me, but I've learned
not to invest too much in anything, because the chances are that I
won't have it for long...be it material or otherwise.
