In Which a Train of Thought is Kept Longer than it usually is... A short comment on the Nature of Work as well

Good morning, dear friend, reader of this present post! Tell me, how are you? How is the weather? For me, it is the coldest it has been in a year or so. 21 Celsius, and I must say, I love it. I want to enjoy every minute of it, it will likely not be as cold anytime soon. And I am okay, though again, a lot of mental turbulence due to specially loneliness. I am affected by trauma also, and I really prefer not to use such word, it risks raising the level of hyperbole, and devaluing the rest, but I have no other word for it, it is trauma, and it exhausts me, it is like a pike in my brain, I hate it, it hurts physically. Of course, when I write such vulnerable line, I risk attracting some bad thought by someone, that desires to analyze my every move. I don't like that. Instead, this is just about some sad events over the course of high school and hints of it after, with some bad interactions on social media. This is not to invite scrutiny over my ideals, they are my own in spite of the ...

In Which I am Moved by The music composed by Gabriel Faure

Good evening, dear friend, reader of this post! Happy Friday, I wish you the best! How are you, today? How are things? I am doing okay! Just waking up, overall! This Thursday was not the most productive one, this will be fixed today, so I hope. I really wish I could draw. For that to happen, though, I'd have to be less fatigued. My brain less foggy. Why does it feel like that? Most likely I drank too much coffee... I really should consider cutting a bit on it, once again. I tried to cut it last year, but to little avail, it did not help I thought the more I drank the more I would be creative and disposed. I supposed less is more, after all, on this matter. Also, to not immediately fall asleep once more, I put a very cold towell on my face. My friend recommended me this. Did it work? I can only say I did not fall asleep, after all...



On other talks, I today listened once again to my most amazing and favorite composer, the french Gabriel Faure. I must say, it was like I was listening to him for the first time, all over. I started with his piece on Pelleas et Melisande, called Sicilienne, but what truly shook me this time was his work called Pavanne. I am not sure if it is the audio, if it was the moment, but I could hear it so well, and I was deeply moved by it, like I said, as if listening to it for the first time, once again... I trust I mentioned Gabriel Faure before on this blog. He is the best, my favorite composer. I think Claude Debussy may also be one of my favorites, they both are french which is a coincidence! The piece by Claude Debussy called La Mer: l'aube a midi sur la mer (From the dawn till noon at the sea)... how appropriate that it is a song about being at the sea, as it is a place I've been next to for so long in my life, at different beaches... the city I live is by the sea, so was my childhood house... so was my place of summer vacation... Debussy makes me like the sea more than being next to it ever could, I guess. True and proper music can do that! 

What else will I do, today? I am hungry, hopefully lunch will be up soon. I may return to my apartment after spending some days in the house of my grandma. She is about to move out from here, some months from now. That would be a weird experience, because this is a house I've been in and out for 25 years or so! One of my favorite places, and soon it will be no more. That is sad. I guess things in life have a moment to end. Things have been ending, lesser things come in its place, such is decay, such is my life. Something appealing about melancholy, and this narrative, though not entirely so. Life is more than that. More than the year of 2012, when I had the best year of my teenage time. 11 years ago! Why at moments I feel stuck in the worst year of my life, 2014? Trauma? Loneliness?... I am not sure. 

I have been meaning to write a post here yesterday, but as I said, I was tired, so it was not productive. I am happy I could write this today, though! When should I be back, as I am wrapping things up hopefully this paragraph? I may return Sunday, or next week. Since February is soon to end, I will have a post to wrap up the month, at some point between Wednesday and Thursday, God willing. For now, though, I bid you farewell, wish you the best! See you again real soon!
