piano autofiction.
Posted by: Adriel on: January 29, 2009
For as long as I can remember, my little sister, sheila, always wanted a piano. We never could afford one. I never knew that. When you’re seven years old, you don’t think about being rich, or poor. It’s the same, until you find someone else to compare with. We had no one. Dad died in [...]
Apathy , Empathy
Posted by: Adriel on: January 28, 2009
It’s not anger, It’s not scorn. I’m not even bitter. I just feel sad for myself. You could say maybe I’m wallowing in self pity. To think I actually thought if I did nice things, I would receive the same if not more. I fail to realize, or rather, remember that the people you may [...]

They say knowledge is power, and enlightenment is the key. Some believe it to be so true, that they’re willing to dedicate their entire lives for that purpose, for enlightenment, for knowledge, or for power. If there’s one thing about humans, we like to think we’re unique. That each and everyone of us are different. [...]

Over the past two weeks, I’ve been watching numerous movies, mostly though, are based or set in WW2, specifically, Nazi Germany. Most were brilliant. This is breathtaking, literally. The film starts with a quote by John Betjeman; ” Childhood is measured out by sounds and smells and sights, before the dark hour of reason grows. [...]

Life. Certain days you get the feeling life and the entire universe is conspiring against you. Playing a big practical joke on you. I tried to flag a taxi at 6am, because there isn’t any extra charges from 6am to 7am. I saw one, but before I flagged it, I noticed someone else waiting for [...]

It depends on how old you are, how you’d react to this movie. I thought it was just another movie, yet before the first half hour I was at the edge of my seat worrying for Randy the ram. Is he going to collapse? Is this the part where he breaks a leg or something? [...]

Hounding.

Enlightenment. One sense of the word, to me, would be to realize that life is a never ending paradox, and it’s satirical, just for the fun of it.
