Quotation from Douglas Coupland's Polaroids from the Dead
"I guess the thing about today is that I spent it alone - not with you. Are you the person I'm thinking of right now? Maybe you are. Where are you? Where did you go? The day is fading and I'm wondering about my next life, tomorrow. I wish it was with you.
"We all have a 'you' in our life... someone out there who was to have spent the day with us, but who then went away for some reason. That special 'you' is not here now. Nor is the sun inside the green bottles of the graveyard wall, nor is the sun reflecting on the angelfish, now fluttering inside black waters.
"The sun has fallen into the world as I have fallen into the world, but the sun will not be judged for falling whereas I will judge myself."
--Two Postcards from the Bahamas
