Who has turned us around like this, so that
whatever we do, we find ourselves in the attitude
of someone going away? Just as that person
on the last hill, which shows him his whole valley
one last time, turns, stops, lingers--,
so we live, forever taking our leave."
~Rainer Maria Rilke (1875-1926), The Eighth Elegy,

~Rainer Maria Rilke (1875-1926), The Eighth Elegy,
I apologize for the length of
this blog.
All I can say in my defense is
that over time it became addicting, and also a true companion.
I tried to open it every morning,
even if only for a brief moment, and often it was not until I wrote here that I
found what it is that I want to say.
My other line of defense is that
many of the entries here are rather short, at times only a picture and few
words. Those were, are, my inspiration. In analyzing my writing process I find
that quotes, and pictures, start the flow of thoughts that later leads me to
write. I wonder at times if they can create the same magic for others.
I meant to cut it short at the end,
and tried several times to do it, but as a true reflection of my thought
process during the course, cutting it, I felt, will take away from its
coherency.
So bear with me and feel free to
jump over anything that does not strike your fancy.
Thank you everybody for the
support and good advice.
I will miss it, I already miss it.
