I'm a Cancerian, the typical crab with the tough outer shell and the soft bit in the middle. I don't think I'll ever come to terms with people being unnecessarily nasty, but I can take it if someone doesn't like my music - I'm not everyone's cup of tea.
It is easy to say how we love new friends, and what we think of them, but words can never trace out all the fibers that knit us to the old.
