loneliness, but never without peace. almost never.

About Me

I think of life as a kind of music, not always good music but still having form and melody. And my life has not been a full orchestra for a long time now. A single note only -- and that note unchanging sorrow...'Thou mayest.' It took me by the throat and shook me. And when the dizziness was over, a path was open, new and bright...Thou mayest rule over sin. That's it. I do not believe all men are destroyed. I can name you a dozen who were not, and they are the ones the world lives by. It is true of the spirit as it is true of battles -- only the winners are remembered. Surely most men are destroyed, but there are others who like pillars of fire guide frightened men through the darkness. Thou mayest! Thou mayest!-- John Steinbeck, East of Eden

I am a little late with this band/song, but it was just too fitting for me to not post.  As of late I have unknowingly (and possibly unwillingly) been led to see life as truly beautiful...

simplicity & beauty

A really good friend of mine gave me this book (it is really short) this morning explaining my need to read it.  I was drawn to tears as I read it.  It is, in its entirety, simplicity and b...

fantastic condition of mortality

I feel sometimes as if I were a child who opens its eyes on the world once and sees amazing things it will never know any names for and then has to close its eyes again. I know this is all mere a...
