A box of letters and a cup of english tea. If he wrote it, he could get rid of it. He had gotten rid of many things by writing them." -Ernest Hemingway. Wednesday, November 28, 2012. The Dichotomy of Stories and Reality. I live a thousand lives tonight. Locked up inside my head. I chose the song of eternity. It ravaged inside my head. I live a thousand lives tonight.

A box of letters and a cup of english tea. If he wrote it, he could get rid of it. He had gotten rid of many things by writing them." -Ernest Hemingway. Tuesday, September 11, 2012. Writing out of your soul. I must write for me. The truth hurts. Writing about those things was- is- so hard. Putting it on paper is declaring it, waging war against it, admitting it to myself. When I wrote it down, I made it real in a new way. Links to this post. Tuesday, September 4, 2012. So many adventures to be had. How c...

A box of letters and a cup of english tea. If he wrote it, he could get rid of it. He had gotten rid of many things by writing them." -Ernest Hemingway. Wednesday, May 22, 2013. I think the mark of spiritual maturity isn’t that you have a safe life where you follow all the rules and look respectable and have a clean house and don’t cuss.

A box of letters and a cup of english tea. If he wrote it, he could get rid of it. He had gotten rid of many things by writing them." -Ernest Hemingway. Sunday, December 23, 2012. Life Abundant (the wonders of people, enthusiasm, and long talks about heaven). This photo has really no relevance to this post except that it's nearly Christmas. And I love snow.

A box of letters and a cup of english tea. If he wrote it, he could get rid of it. He had gotten rid of many things by writing them." -Ernest Hemingway. Thursday, July 26, 2012. I don't think I want to be amazing. I think I want to be real. I'm a perfectionist by nature. Sometimes I am able to balance that fairly well, utilizing its strengths and downplaying its weaknesses.

A box of letters and a cup of english tea. If he wrote it, he could get rid of it. He had gotten rid of many things by writing them." -Ernest Hemingway. Is just so awesome. Because life is full of amazing opportunities and beautiful things. Because I don't want to miss out on living fully, originally, radically, and maybe even slightly ridiculously. Because I am too excited about the miracle of human consciousness. Done more than once! And edit until I'm satisfied with it. Work in a library or bookstore.

On "Stars", Les Mis and the Elder Brother. Stars/ In their multitudes/ Scarce to be counted/ Filling the darkness". Literally all that Javert can see is the Law. This is why the contrast between Javert and Valjean is so strong. The highest good, in Javert's mind, is that the Law is maintained. That Justice is served. So at the ...
