(image credits to Edmund Arthur Gray on deviantart) first post while at work and the only thing running through my mind is music and how hauntingly beautiful it can be. I’ll leave things at that. now, back to work! Life is for the living. Death is for the dead. Let life be like music. And…
–91: “life is a journey of realization, which often ends in that place where dreams never begin.”
(image credits to Finance Money Live) sudden realisation of the day (and perhaps week/month): we are often convinced that ‘there is someone out there waiting for us’ and that everyone certainly has a ‘special someone’ for them (see: Plato’s The Symposium: Aristophanes’ dialogue). we apparently spend all our lives searching for their ‘other half’ so…

(image credits to citizen.tv) there might be some curiosity as to why I placed a ‘–92’ before the title of the post, which is almost always a quote. it’s something I will explain in a while so please bear with my banal ramblings. everything will make sense in the end. I was thinking about the…

(image credits to The Traveling Philosopher) Out of the night that covers me, Black as the pit from pole to pole, I thank whatever gods may be For my unconquerable soul.

“for a great many people, the evening is the most enjoyable part of the day…”
a quick panorama I shot with my iPhone 4S earlier on, whilst traversing VivoCity’s Sky Park in search of some inspiration and waiting for mother dearest to head off to dinner. wanted to leave it as it was but a panorama on a white square canvas seemed boring so I decided to make it a…
