Only if you remember death will you become strong-willed and alert enough not to postpone love, goes a Sufi saying. Ironic that I should remember that now as I write to you. You once told me not to postpone love and my dreams .. and then years later understood exactly what i meant when i said i had died a million deaths. You could understand unique extremes and I didnt feel lonely in my thinking. thank you.


There was this girl who was in new territories, she had not consciously delved into her right brain. One unexpected day, she met a teacher who talked about the switch- the switch to the light- the light that would create shadows- shadows of paths- paths that would teach- teach how to walk on those paths- walk the talk- talk about dreams unknown- dreams of reality that could be- reality then imitated dreams- dreams became life- life became free- butterflies are free- and so are we.

i thank you teacher. all you had to do was talk about the switch. now i live life in all it's reality and i will not ever be in a position that needs me to regret.
