Clinging for human comfort
against a world myself
In a world obscene

to articulate ourselves
to our existence

or else be condemned
as cows in the field.

Ay vida mia!
no solo el fuego entre nosotros arde,
sino toda la vida,
la simple historia,
el simple amor
de una mujer y un hombre
parecidos a todos.

Ah my life!
it is not only the fire
that burns between us,
but all of life,
the simple story,
the simple love
of a woman and a man
like everyone.

-Pablo Neruda

If I wrote of all that has changed in the last couple of months, this would be the longest post ever posted EVER. So, I will try to paint a picture with...pictures. This is my rendition of time and change, which lately has been infinitely refreshing and infinitely difficult to understand. I am happy. Really happy.

Daniel got his wisdom teeth taken out yesterday. My mom took him to get it done, so I was expecting funny drug stories (funny things said, running into objects, etc..), but there were none. I went to his mom and dad's house to see him after school, but he wasn't there. They sent me to his house with gauze and an after surgery care sheet. I walked ( Read more... )
