  How far will you go to avenge and vindicate what has been once yours?  ..   Supposing, it’s a person. Someone your truly love. But lost.    Will you hack their socials?, label them with the nastiest of names?, post their ugly pictures online?, scratch their car?. Throw eggs on their window?.    OR    Will you stalk them?. Investigate their lives?. dig into their personas until you get to the right moment to finish them off?.   I know you got chills all over your body the second you set eyes on the word  Stalk,  (me too).   Just imagine someone being super obsessed with you and your existence (in a positive/ negative way, depends) that they intentionally plan on studying you, your presence, and your psyche, as if you’re related to them and share their last name.  All, to act under the aegis of revenge.    Through the medium of Love everything seems to be acceptable.

  BLOOD             GUILLOTINE       Now that I have caught your attention lets dig in. And no, we’re not discussing a Halloween themed party, we’re actually embarking on an important aspect of a philosophical view and review in regard to death penalties. After a very long break I’m in fact making a strong comeback, ready and energized to spill more tea and coffee over books.    With that lets start with the bloody stuff ..   Shall we?   It’s a yes I know!   Before we start, I’m obliged to let you know that this discussion strikes multiple factors of one’s credence and principles. Which is why feel free to sail your way through or even skip this chat (will see you in the next one! ) if you sense that it’s not your place of comfort. Don’t worry you won’t miss a thing.   .   .   .   Now that we’re all comfortable and cozy in here lets start.        Reflection on the Guillotin...
