"For us, our house is not insentient matter—it has a heart, and a soul, and eyes to see us with; and approvals, and solicitudes, and deep sympathies; it is of us, and we are in its confidence, and live in its grace and in the peace of its benediction. We never come home from an absence that its face does not light up and speak out its eloquent welcome—and we can not enter it unmoved."
—Mark Twain, 1896

I am somewhere else today

“When I begin to doubt my ability to work the word, I simply read another writer and know I have nothing to worry about. My contest is only with myself, to do it right, with power, and force, and delight, and gamble.”
 Charles Bukowski 1920-1994






I wasted a good deal of time yesterday on the reprehensible pleasure of just being lazy. And, it doesn’t seem like today was any different. My mind is empty akin to unoccupied train carriages yawning to be filled. At this moment, I am somewhere in-between stations silently waiting to board for a destination of clarity.
