But it was meaningless in the big picture of things...indeed, you can almost say, based on what happened, it is sad....

I remember it with the fondest of memories, I can only dream of one day facing that kind of “sadness” again.

Nature’s first green is gold,
Her hardest hue to hold.
Her early leaf’s a flower;
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay

Not just sad, but it may have done more harm than good in turns of building a fan base. I say that somewhat flippantly. 

That shouldn’t be said flippantly at all. It’s something I’ve believed for quite a while. When only talking about building a fan base, those years undoubtedly did more harm than good.

I always assumed this was on your wall next to a picture of xCJL, Ponyboy.

I wouldn't have even guessed for a minute you're the type of person who focuses on the past and losing that golden moment as opposed to the present.

The evil men do lives after them the good is oft interred with their bones so let this be for CJL.

That’s why i followed it up with the Outsiders and then Mark Anthony’s speech from Julius Caesar, so people know I am a real man.
