I'm a lover of literature. I hate that the words of wisdom are rarely uttered and the voice of the idiot is never hesitate.
I hate that sensitivity is viewed as weakness and emotionally dead is socially acceptable. I hate that hatred and violence coexist with love and happiness.
I hate that every time I look out at the world I witness my fellow man abusing my friends and neighbors; raping them of their fortunes and dignity.
I hate that there is no unselfish deed in the world. I hate that people cannot turn a cheek.
I love that music and literature have withstood the decades, and even today, still massage our heartbeats, motioning our emotions with but a rhythm, with but a paraphrase.
I love that words can grip someone, stir them into submission; fully arrest them and entrance them into a world never before witnessed.
Good company, good wine, good tunes - I'm very satisfied. And if you share my taste, well in the words of Bogart - "Louis, I think this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship."
Making the move... Jun 23
I have decided to make the move from Blogger to my very own home at ramblingsofjays.comAlthough a Google fan I must abandon the efficient and enabled Google's Blogger for the stylish Wordpress.
