The world is full of magical things patiently waiting for our wits to grow sharper.

Compilation of the Heart - Who wants forever anyway?
There's no time for us,
There's no place for us,
What is this thing that builds our dreams, yet slips away from us.
Who wants to live forever,
Who wants to live forever.....?
There's no chance for us,
It's all decided for us,
This world has only one sweet moment set aside for us.
Who wants to live forever,
Who dares to love forever,
When love must die.
But touch my tears with your lips,
Touch my world with your fingertips,
And we can have forever,
And we can love forever,
Forever is our today,
Who wants to live forever,
Who wants to live forever,
Forever is our today,

VANITAS
I will not tell you our love story, because
- like all real love stories -
it will die with us, as it should.

Compilation of the Heart - Per Amor ad Absurdum*
Humans are creatures, who spent their lives
trying to convince themselves,
trying to convince themselves,
that their existence is not absurd.

Compilation of the Heart - Walk on By
Just when you begin thinking of yourself as memorable,
you run into someone who can't even remember having met you.

Insight of the Day
or how Twain puts it:
"Everything has its limit – iron ore cannot be educated into gold."
Mark Twain
If things break, get dented, can't keep pace or the form starts following another “function” -
They weren't made to.
They weren't made to.
Though Michelangelo could find “in every block of stone” a statue, sculpturing it till "the skin showed", he couldn't make it breathe or its heart beat.
