When I don't want to deal with a popsicle but still want to eat one I let it sit out for a little while and when it is slushy I break it up with a spoon and eat it that way.
Every friendship travels at sometime through the black valley of despair. This tests every aspect of your affection. You lose the attraction and the magic. Your sense of each other darkens and your presence is sore. If you can come through this time, it can purify with your love, and falsity and need will fall away. It will bring you onto new ground where affection can grow again. – John O'Donohue
