“Still, I will say that the same thing which has helped generations of Sicilians hold their dignity has helped me begin to recover mine—namely, the idea that the appreciation of pleasure can be an anchor of one’s humanity… I felt a glimmer of happiness when I started studying Italian, and when you sense a faint potentiality for happiness after such dark times you must grab onto the ankles of that happiness and not let go until it drags you face-first out of the dirt—this is not selfishness, but obligation. You were given life; it is your duty (and also your entitlement as a human being) to find something beautiful within life, no matter how slight.”

“Virginia Woolf wrote, “Across the broad continent of a woman’s life falls the shadow of a sword. On one side of that sword, she said, there lies convention and tradition and order, where “all is correct.” But on the other side of that sword, if you’re crazy enough to cross it and choose a life that does not follow convention, “all is confusion. Nothing follows a regular course.” Her argument was that the crossing of the shadow of that sword may bring a far more interesting existence to a woman, but you can bet it will also be more perilous.”

“Still, despite all this, traveling is the great true love of my life. I have always felt, ever since I was sixteen years old and first went to Russia with my saved-up babysitting money, that to travel is worth any cost or sacrifice. I am loyal and constant in my love for travel, as I have not always been loyal and constant in my other loves. I feel about travel the way a happy new mother feels about her impossible, colicky, restless newborn baby- I just don’t care what it puts me through. Because I adore it. Because it’s mine. Because it looks exactly like me. It can barf all over me if it wants to- I just don’t care.”

- A surprisingly excellent book about a woman’s sabbatical across Italy, India, and Indonesia, in search for pleasure, devotion, and balance, and ultimately self. Quirky/witty/funny and honest writing by Elizabeth Gilbert; I love her voice; very down-to-earth; I find myself giggling while I read this on the metro. Definitely inspiring and soul-refreshing. Also, her cultural observations in these three countries are eye-opening and informative. Once deterred by this #1 New York Times Bestseller, I’m certainly glad to have started “Eat pray love” when I did.

“My thoughts go out to you, my Immortal Beloved.
I can live only wholly with you or not at all-
Be calm my life, my all.
Only by a calm consideration of our existence can we achieve our purpose to live together.
Oh continue to love me - never misjudge the most faithful heart of your beloved.
Ever thine
Ever mine
Ever ours.”

- Beethoven - Love Letters of Great Men

“Inner peace” (raw) by kYoSin

i feel the wind gently brushing my face and for that moment everything’s gonna be okay

all my worries are swept away by the wind that brought peace to my day

I let the water shower over my soul and in that moment i let it all go

All my broken’s being mended whole by the warmth that soothed and lifted my low

i’m not a singer, but i like to compose music. after years of wanting to record my songs, i’ve finally done it! here’s the first one of the album.. enjoy! ps. it’s very raw.. so you’ll be hearing a lot of clicks and squeaks.. Peace & love, kYoSin

-“-~_~-“-~_~-“- lyrics -“-~_~-“-~_~-“-

I can’t stop thinking of that one afternoon when we first met eyes

you were enchanted by me, and i you

the world revolving around us; the minutes that seemed eternal

Time and people passing us by

Are you like that with most people you talk to or was there an interest

is it just me or was there something real?

God help guide my thoughts; this guy is driving me nuts

Could this be what they call love..

[“Could this be love” (raw)- by kYoSin]

“Scars” (raw) by kYoSin

lyrics

You keep slashing me the same way you know how

it hurts; it pains; i cry and the wounds stay with me forever.

—————————-

So as i drive with tears in my eyes and wet cheeks, i can’t stop

‘cause it’s happened before, it’s happening now, it will happen again and again in the future.. it will never stop

past scars reappear; these wounds never heal; past scars reappear; these wounds never heal

—————————-

You don’t know how much you hurt me; if you did you’d apologize

Yet i haven’t heard a sorry due to your pride
