About Me

"Show me who you are and then I'll know where to begin..." -Leo Buscalgia
..................................
If we are to live life in harmony with the universe- we must possess a powerful faith in what the ancients used to call fate... what we currently refer to as destiny.When love feels like magic, it's called Destiny. When destiny has a sense of humor, It's called SerendipityLife is not merely a series of meaningless accidents or coincidences, but rather, it's a tapestry of events that culminate in an exquisite sublime plan.I think we make our own decisions, I just think that fate sends us little signs, and it's how we read the signs that determines whether we're happy or not.
-On Serendipity
..................................
I have seen giraffes in junglejims
their necks like love
wound around the iron circumstances
of the world.
I have sat in an uneasy chair.
I am a tear of the sun.
I am a hill
where poets run.
I invented the alphabet
after watching the flight of cranes
who made letters with their legs.
I am a lake upon a plain.
I am a word
in a tree.
I am a hill of poetry.
I am a raid
on the inarticulate.
I have dreamt
that all my teeth fell out
but my tongue lived
to tell the tale.
For I am a still
of poetry.
-Autobiography
by Lawrence Ferlinghetti
