It’s all too easy for greed to flourish when, by nature, we are blind to the intricacy of others

[findmefloating]

Or was music just a premonition of this thing called life? Life made more palpable. Life made more real, or less real, because there was music and incantation trapped in its folds.

How many sunken layers deep are those we thought we knew simply because we loved them?

And yet there may just be some small joy in finding that we are each put in a position to complete the lives of others, to close the ledger they left open and play their last card for them.

How do we forgive ourselves for all of the things we did not become?

We had the stars, you and I. And this is given once only.

[findmefloating]

Perhaps we were friends first and lovers second. But then perhaps this is what lovers are.

If he knew, if he only knew that I was giving him every chance to put two and two together and come up with a number bigger than infinity

Happiness consists in realizing it is all a great strange dream.

What did you do as a child that made the hours pass like minutes? Herein lies the key to your earthly pursuits.

Carl Jung

So I waited. Then I got used to waiting. Eventually, waiting was more real than what we had.
