The difference is the difference we seek

HISTORY 2000 thru 2050 Part 1 What makes the difference one wonders; between me and you? So what if you tell your dreams to me, does it not beg explanation? It’s the difference that matters isn’t it?

The Communique

April 5 th, 2079 My dearest friend, Received your communiqué this a.m., and words cannot describe the pleasure it gave me.

giving a new meaning to run through the jungle

The old man leaned back, and wiping his chin, began to talk. ‘This is what we know,’ he began. ‘All nature is rhythmical’ he said, pausing, as he looked out the window, as if expecting something or someone. From the beat of our hearts, to the tides of the sea, and to the succession of the seasons,... Sign in to see full entry.

searching for some magic in a hat a mere song - not yet sung... the phone with that certain ring but only in a dream... pinpoint light from stars but that's all... and not near enough on this dark night... for the road is winding on this fantastic relay to redemption that begs not for an ending.....

Detour from Reality

‘Seems so - now - doesn’t it?’ The little path I’m on is getting harder to see in the evening-time light, and the voice doesn’t lie, an eerie feeling of awareness, such as it is - is here, I feel it.
