before bedtime...

now playing: the tune on the sundance channel

a couple of things, before bedtime...


first, more creepy coincidental words from rob brezny:

" Bibliophile Anne N. Marino loves the "welcoming mysteriousness" of those buildings where large collections of books are housed for public use. "Walking into a library," she wrote in the San Francisco Chronicle, "I'm filled with a sense of belonging; my mind becomes clear, my heart rate slows; I can think."

Your assignment in the coming week, Leo, is to identify the places that make you feel like that, and then spend as much time as possible inside of them."





i think that, were there a rule book for life as we tend to live it, that towards the front of the book should be written the following:


your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to be an individual alive within the world you're born into. should you choose this path, you will have to accept several inalienable truths...chief among them is that the world doesn't owe you a day off, and the world typically doesn't care if you're having a bad day. the world will give you no quarter should you choose to withdraw from it to nurse your wounds, and it will still be moving at its own pace when you decide to re-embrace your membership in it. you have the gift of free will, and may choose to live within the world or within yourself...should you choose the latter, you will be best served by remembering always that you are but part of the whole. abandon all thoughts of the world playing the game on your terms, for the game isn't played that way.
