"Maybe nothingness is to be without your presence, without you moving, slicing the noon like a blue flower, without you walking later through the fog and the cobbles, without the light you carry in your hand, golden, which maybe others will not see, which maybe no one knew was growing like the red beginnings of a rose. In short, without your presence: without your coming suddenly, incitingly, to know my life, gust of a rosebush, wheat of wind: since then I am because you are, since then you are, I am, we are, and through love I will be, you will be, we will be." — Pablo Neruda

PJ Harvey - When will i see you again?

OWL : Nov 23 - Dec 21 Changeable and mutable as the wind, the Owl is a tough one to pin down. Warm, natural, with an easy-going nature, the Owl is friend to the world. The bearer of this Native American animal symbol is notorious for engaging in life at full speed, and whole-hearted loves adventure. This can be to his/her detriment as the Owl can be reckless, careless, and thoughtless. Owls make great artists, teachers, and conservationists. However, due to his/her adaptability and versatility - the Owl would likely excel in any occupation. In a supportive, nurturing environment the Owl is sensitive, enthusiastic, and an attentive listener. Left to his/her own devices, the Owl can be excessive, overindulgent, bitter, and belligerent.

"If, then, I were asked for the most important advice I could give, that which I considered to be the most useful to the men of our century, I should simply say: in the name of God, stop a moment, cease your work, look around you." — Leo Tolstoy

"A soulmate is an ongoing connection with another individual that the soul picks up again in various times and places over lifetimes. We are attracted to another person at a soul level not because that person is our unique complement, but because by being with that individual, we are somehow provided with an impetus to become whole ourselves." — Edgar Cayce


Our universe grants every soul a twin- a reflection of themselves -the kindred spirit - And no matter where they are or how far away they are from each other- even if they are in different dimensions, they will always find one another. This is destiny; this is love.


"I don't judge people. It blurs out the center of my attention, my focus, myself." — Toba Beta

Spacemen 3 - Honey

Brightblack Morning Light - Own Time Woodland Song

Tom Waits - Picture in a Frame

Tom Waits - Strange Weather (Acoustic Demo)

“I am the tiger. I lie in wait for you among leaves Broad as ingots Of wet mineral. The white river grows Beneath the fog. You come. Naked you submerge. I wait. Then in a leap Of fire, blood, teeth, With a claw slash I tear away Your bosom, your hips. I drink your blood, I break Your limbs one by one. And I remain watching For years in the forest Over your bones, your ashes, Motionless, far From hatred and anger, Disarmed in your death, Crossed by lianas, Motionless in the rain, Relentless sentinel Of my murderous love.” — Pablo Neruda


I like you calm, as if you were absent, and you hear me far-off, and my voice does not touch you. It seems that your eyelids have taken to flying: it seems that a kiss has sealed up your mouth. Since all these things are filled with my spirit, you come from things, filled with my spirit. You appear as my soul, as the butterfly’s dreaming, and you appear as Sadness’s word. I like you calm, as if you were distant, you are a moaning, a butterfly’s cooing. You hear me far-off, my voice does not reach you. Let me be calmed, then, calmed by your silence. Let me commune, then, commune with your silence, clear as a light, and pure as a ring. You are like night, calmed, constellated. Your silence is star-like, as distant, as true. I like you calm, as if you were absent: distant and saddened, as if you were dead. One word at that moment, a smile, is sufficient. And I thrill, then, I thrill: that it cannot be so.

"Everyone has his own reality in which, if one is not too cautious, timid or frightened, one swims. This is the only reality there is." — Henry Miller


"What the really great artists do is they're entirely themselves. They're entirely themselves, they've got their own vision, they have their own way of fracturing reality, and if it's authentic and true, you will feel it in your nerve endings." — David Foster Wallace


"Between the idea And the reality Between the motion And the act Falls the Shadow" — T.S. Eliot
