كانت أعياد الميلاد تدخل السعادة على قلبي باستمرار لكني استيقظت هذا الصباح وأنا أشعر بثقل في صدري واطرح أسئلة كبيرة جدا على امرأة لم تحتس قهوتها الصباحية بعد ،
ورحت أتساءل : هل الطريقة التي عشتها في حياتي هي الطريقة التي أريد أن استمر بها ؟؟
ثم اعتراني شعور بالخوف ماذا لو أسفرت كلمتا نعم ولا عن نتائج سيئة ،
لذا وجدت جوابا آخر وهو: ربما.
"Bountiful is your life, full and complete. Or so you think, until someone comes along and makes you realize what you have been missing all this time. Like a mirror that reflects what is absent rather than present, he shows you the void in your soul — the void you have resisted seeing. That person can be a lover, a friend, or a spiritual master. Sometimes it can be a child to look after. What matters is to find the soul that will complete
yours. All the prophets have given the same advice: Find the one who will be your mirror!".
That was the one thing about the rain that likened it to sorrow: You did your best to remain untouched, safe and dry, but if and when you failed, there came a point in which you started seeing the problem less in terms of drops than as an incessant gush, and thereby you decide you might as well get drenched.

الحُلْمُ فتاةٌ ورديَّة الوجنتين ، أخَّاذةٌ كحورية البحر ، ولعوبٌ مثلها أيضًا . لو تقدَّمتَ لتحملها بين ذراعيك ، لانزلقَت منك ، ليِّنةً وخفيفة ، مثل سمكة ، أو مثل السَراب الَّذي خُلقت من مادته . ولا مصير لأولئك الذين يشتاقون إلى لمسها ، غيرَ استنزاف حيواتهم .
أمَّا الحقيقةُ فليست سوى عجوز بشعرٍ رماديٍّ كالسماوات العاصفة ، عجوز بلا أسنان ، تبعث ثرثرتُها القشعريرة في الأجسام . هي ليست قبيحة ، ليسَ تمامًا ، بَيْدَ أن فيها شيئًا مُريبًا وغير مريح ، وهو ما يجعل النظر إلى عينيها أمرًا في غاية الصعوبة .
Ways of loving from a distance, mating without even touching-Amor platonicus! The ladder of love one is expected to climb higher and higher, elating the Self and the Other. Plato clearly regards any actual physical contact as corrupt and ignoble because he thinks the true goal of Eros is beauty. Is there no beauty in sex? Not according to Plato. He is after `more sublime pursuits.' But if you ask me, I think Plato's problem, like those of many others, was that he never got splendidly laid.
"When you kill someone, something from that person passes to you - a sigh, a smell or a gesture. I call it "the curse of the victim." It clings to your body and seeps into your skin, going all the way into your heart, and thus continues to live within you. I carry with me the traces of all the men I have killed. I wear them around my neck like invisible necklaces, feeling their presence against my flesh, tight and heavy. In every murderer breathes the man he murdered."
