"I believe in the future.
I may live in my car,
My radio tuned to
The voice of a star.
Song dogs barking at the break of dawn
Lightning pushes the edge of a thunderstorm
And these old hopes and fears
Still at my side."

-Paul Simon

Surrendering: the act of releasing something into the hands of the person who will inevitably win it over in the end.

Giving up: deciding it's not worth it.

Sometimes feeling like your life is a movie isn't all that great.

If there's one thing I'm thankful for, it's that there are very few places in this world I could go that don't have birds.

"In a world which contains the present moment," said Neville, "why discriminate? Nothing should be named lest by so doing we change it. Let it exist, this bank, this beauty, and I, for one instant, steeped in pleasure. The sun is hot. I see the river. I see trees specked and burnt in the autumn sunlight. Boats float past, through the red, thrrough the green. Far away a bell tolls, but not for death. There are bells that ring for life. A leaf falls, from joy. Oh, I am in love with life!"

[The Waves, Virginia Woolf]

For me, rebirth and new life comes with the Fall.

[She was my muse, you could say. Now she's my memory.]
