This is what I'm listening to today.

I like music and bullshit like dat and all.
I tend to have one song that I listen to over-and-over that day. The next day I move on to a different song. Its interesting how each person listens to music uniquely.
We are all so different. Its amazing.

Take a picture and a bucket of tears and help yourself to the rain, dear.

No, body, please, now is not the time to be sick. Wait one week, I beg you.
Why must you do this to me? I am nice to you. I feed you well, I exercise you well, I rest you well.
Why do you taunt me?

To do:
Shakespeare paper- fix
HIstory of English articles- read
Math- understand
ED 120 project- finalize
Christmas presents- buy
Apartment- clean
Laundry- please
Music- memorize
Body- heal
Coffee- BREW.

I could have it worse.

Banksy is cool.


He robbed the store. Just of a bouquet. So he could give them to his wife. As he told her she was dying.


More Banksy Here.

2 More Sara Teasdale

Hmmm.... I'm afraid this poet and I may share a soul.

I love the way she uses apostrophes. She talks TO the lovely chance. This is the way I think. Its spiritual. She also recognizes the importance of chance in life.

Water Lilies I dedicate my friend who has just ended a relationship. She tells me he is reminded of him everywhere she looks. I am looking forward to her returning to her hometown over winter break and being away from the memories of him. When she forgets, she can be at peace.


Lovely Chance

O LOVELY chance, what can I do
To give my gratefulness to you?
You rise between myself and me
With a wise persistency;
I would have broken body and soul,
But by your grace, still I am whole.
Many a thing you did to save me,
Many a holy gift you gave me,
Music and friends and happy love
More than my dearest dreaming of;
And now in this wide twilight hour
With earth and heaven a dark, blue flower,
In a humble mood I bless
Your wisdom—and your waywardness.
You brought me even here, where I
Live on a hill against the sky
And look on mountains and the sea
And a thin white moon in the pepper tree.


Water Lilies

If you have forgotten water lilies floating
On a dark lake among mountains in the afternoon shade,
If you have forgotten their wet, sleepy fragrance,
Then you can return and not be afraid.
But if you remember, then turn away forever
To the plains and the prairies where pools are far apart,
There you will not come at dusk on closing water lilies,
And the shadow of mountains will not fall on your heart.

7.7/10 feel the way I do.

I Am Not Yours

I am not yours, not lost in you,
Not lost, although I long to be
Lost as a candle lit at noon,
Lost as a snowflake in the sea.

You love me, and I find you still
A spirit beautiful and bright,
Yet I am I, who long to be
Lost as a light is lost in light.

Oh plunge me deep in love--put out
My senses, leave me deaf and blind,
Swept by the tempest of your love,
A taper in a rushing wind.

Sara Teasdale

Every day, God gives us the sun...

Paulo Coelho also has a blog. Perhaps then, the idea is not so silly. But then, why am I comparing my life with Paulo Coelho's?! I am afraid of the proposal that I have anything useful to say.
And he definitely does...


"One doesn’t love in order to do what is good or to help or to protect someone. If we act that way, we are perceiving the other as a simple object, and we seeing ourselves as wise and generous persons. This has nothing to do with love. To love is to be in communion with the other and to discover in that other the spark of God.

You have to take risks. We will only understand the miracle of life fully when we allow the unexpected to happen.

Every day, God gives us the sun – and also one moment in which we have the ability to change everything that makes us unhappy. Every day, we try to pretend that we haven’t perceived the moment, that it doesn’t exist – that today is the same as yesterday and will be the same as tomorrow. But if people really pay attention in their everyday lives, they will discover that magic moment. It may arrive in the instant when we are doing something mundane, like putting our front-door key in the lock; it may lie hidden in the quiet that follows the lunch hour or in the thousand and one things that all seems the same to us. But that moment exists – a moment when all the power of the stars becomes a part of us and enables us to perform miracles."
