I got a song filled with shit for the strong-willed
When the world gives you a raw deal
Sets you off 'til you scream, "Piss off! Screw you!"
When it talks to you like you don't belong
Or tells you you're in the wrong field
When something's in your mitochondrial
'Cause it latched on to you, like-
Knock knock, let
Hello!
My hair wrestles with wind.
I am idle without home, country.
What am I doing here? Even I dunno
I didn't know from where I came
I wonder, where I am going.
My age also wrestles with time.
Do what you know. Later, after you've made several Quantum Leaps and become more comfortable with the acquisition process, you'll see common characteristics, and be able to handle acquisitions regardless of the industry, much as I do now. (…) You want to make your acquisitions in an industry which is fragmented, and dominated by mom-and-pop companies. You want an industry that's large enough to handle your acquisition aspirations. If you're planning to purchase one of three companies that serve what is essentially a limited market, such as buggy whip repair or carbon paper manufacturing, you have nowhere to expand.
You want industries that enjoy a 20% to 40% margin. In my own experience, these include such wisely diverse industries as retail jewelry, landscaping, building maintenance, publishing, home improvements and trailer parks. If you get into a business with 3% or 5% profit margins, you'll take forever to build your dream. Narrow your focus. (…)
The size of business you want to acquire depends on the size of your goal, and the clarity of your vision. (…) Your acquisition must be in order of a large manufacturing firm or distribution business that will catch the eye of investment bankers.
How big a company? As a general rule, you as an owner can reasonably expect to receive income, before debt service, of about $25,000 from intangible services or consulting fees of $50,000, since there is no inventory, and usually no equipment beyond office furniture; about $25,000 from retail sales of $100,000; and the same from manufacturing equipment, depending on the degree of automation and cost of materials.

no one wakes up in the morning and thinks to himself, "i'm so excited to see her today!"
no one sits around and waits for me to text back
no one's first thought when they're happy or something good happens is to text me
no one asks me to call them when i get home
no one cares enough to tell me, "no, not another drink"
my mom would rather spend time with my brother and my dad loves my sister more than life itself
i am no one's best friend, i am not the love of anyone's life, i'm not anyone's favorite student. i'm not anyone's person. people care about me, sure, but i'm no one's favorite. there is not a single person that values me above all the rest and that hurts.
"MOM is my HOME"
'Then you'll go home soon. '
The child bit her lower lips. 'Mam's my home, ' she whispered.

'O zaman yakında eve gideceksin. '
Çocuk alt dudaklarını ısırdı. 'Annem benim evim (yuvam)," diye fısıldadı.
"Do you always think this much, Charlie?" "Is that bad?" I just wanted someone to tell me the truth. "Not necessarily. It's just that sometimes people use thought to not participate in life." "Is that bad?" "Yes." "I think I participate, though. Don't you think I am?" "Well, are you dancing at these dances?" "I'm not a very good dancer." "Are you going on dates?" "Well, I don't have a car, and even if I did, I can't drive because I'm fifteen, and anyway, I haven't met a girl I like except for Sam, but I am too young for her, and she would always have to drive, which I don't think is fair." Bill smiled and continued asking me questions. Slowly, he got to "problems at home." And I told him about the boy who makes mix tapes hitting my sister because my sister only told me not to tell mom or dad about it, so I figured I could tell Bill. He got this very serious look on his face after I told him, and he said something to me I don't think I will forget this semester or ever. "Charlie, we accept the love we think we deserve."
