Of Moments
"The most important thing I learned on Tralfamadore was that when a person dies he only appears to die. He is still very much alive in the past, so it is very silly for people to cry at his funeral. All moments, past, present and future, always have existed, always will exist." /Kurt Vonnegut. Slaughterhouse-Five/
Sunshine on my back
I gave up on time Just like you said you would There are tiny cracks of light underneath me And you say I got it wrong But I tried hard to uncover them I have somehow got Away with everything Anything you ever did was strictly by design But you got it wrong And I'll go anywhere but there
A National kind of day
I am good, I am grounded, Davy says that I look taller. I can't get my head around it, I keep feeling smaller and smaller.
It's April already

Early March, London, Cheapside
The city was drowning in summer-like haze, the air was crisp, but the midday sun was brighter than ever. I couldn’t hope to navigate the glass and steel labyrinths in time to sit and marvel at the arrival of Spring somewhere on the banks of Thames, but I couldn’t get enough of the light either. So I swallowed it, and felt the blood rushing to my head

The desert is the environment of revelation, genetically and physiologically alien, sensorily austere, esthetically abstract, historically inimical.... Its forms are bold and suggestive. The mind is beset by light and space, the kinesthetic novelty of aridity, high temperature, and wind. The desert sky is encircling, majestic, terrible. In other habitats, the rim of sky above the horizontal is broken or obscured; here, together with the overhead portion, it is infinitely vaster than that of rolling countryside and forest lands

I'm hardly a fan of lavender-perfumed things but catching their actual scent as I walk past them in parks and gardens is a completely different story #lavender #august (at Waterlow Park)

I have hated words and I have loved them, and I hope I have made them right.

The October high pressure sodium light.
I could walk out, but I won’t, In my mind I am in your arms. I wish someone would take my place, Can’t face heaven all heavenfaced. No one’s careful all the time, If you lose me, I’m gonna die.

When Putin released Khodorkovsky and Pussy Riot before the games, many in the West patted themselves on the back: ‘It shows that we can put pressure on Putin.’ Sort of. The Russian essayist Alexander Morozov caught the mood best: Putin is getting married and he wants a good atmosphere for the party. That’s not quite the same thing as caring about your reputation. As for David Cameron not turning up for the opening ceremony, that might sting for a few seconds (or not), but it’s nothing compared to the merger between BP and Rosneft (nicknamed ‘Britneft’). Around the time the deal was made, the British government blocked a coroner’s request for a public inquiry into Alexander Litvinenko’s death.

The Europeans may not be ready for their Olympics, but, okay, we’ll give them the benefit of the doubt and hope for the best. The Chinese prepare for theirs ruthlessly, but we don’t understand them so whatever. We railed on Romney for daring to criticize the preparedness of our British friends, and we wrote in muted tones about Athens not being ready in time for their Olympics, but with the Russians, we gloat: Look at these stupid savages, they can’t do anything right.

Something I've been thinking a lot about lately myself.
