Something or someone or an idea that catches your attention briefly but brilliantly.
The sun on water. Mercury. An intriguing random person. What you wanted to be when you grow up/older when you were 5. A thought.
Sometimes memorable, sometimes forgotten in an instant.
. . .
I spend too much time online and on trains.
I escape through fiction.
I find it hard to relate to people who don't hate themselves at least a little.
. . .
Freedom from and freedom to have to coexist. Depriving people of information hinders both.
Pleasure is wonderful. Pain teaches you how wonderful pleasure can be.
Music helps.
. . .
Things I don't have enough of in my life include quiet, darkness, and warmth. but hey, that's Chicago for you. |
