About Me

The absence of fighting or hatred or desire also means the opposites do not exist either. No joy, no communication, no love. Only where there is disillusionment and depression and sorrow does happiness arise; without the despair of loss, there is no hope. - Haruki Murakami
Man shouldn't be able to see his own face - there's nothing more sinister. Nature gave him the gift of not being able to see it, and of not being able to stare into his own eyes. Only in the water of rivers and ponds could he look at his face. And the very posture he had to assume was symbolic. He had to bend over, stoop down, to commit the ignominy of beholding himself. The inventor of the mirror poisoned the human heart. - pessoa, txt 466
"If you live in the U.S. and think you know what your government is doing to other countries and why, just because you watch cable or read a daily newspaper - think I make music. I call it esoteric tapioca . You might like it. I like it sometimes.
I also draw and paint. My art can be found at Deviant Art , but I don't update it very frequently.

My Interests

Honesty.

I'd like to meet:

Myself 10 years from now.I want to see, real and living, and in the hours of my own days, the glory I create as an illusion. I want it real. I want to know that there is someone, somewhere, that wants it, too. Or else what is the use of seeing it, and working, and burning oneself for an impossible vision? A spirit, too, needs fuel. It can run dry.

Friends of Mine
I have a lot of friends.

I'm a little confused. Is the moral to the story abstinence or moderation? I think the line blurs so dramatically that many people have a hard time finding a balance between the two; most people seem...
