I write for myself for the pleasure of writing
All aspects of life touch me, however minute. Is it possible to walk along a hillside and feel the air and not be touched by everything the wind has embraced? No way. Sure, you can get allergies; I am allergic towards some people and some philosophies.
Everyone is
. The past is a great granary of harvests taken
. The present is where I live and anticipate the future
. I write because I am
