Aug. 23rd, 2014 10:29 am Ralph Waldo Emerson - Crossing a bare common, in snow puddles, at twilight, under a clouded sky, without having in my thoughts any occurrence of special good fortune, I have enjoyed a perfect exhilaration. I am glad to the brink of fear.
“Statistically, the probability of any one of us being here is so small that you'd think the mere fact of existing would keep us all in a contented dazzlement of surprise. ”
Rilke - I would like to step out of my heart / and go walking beneath the enormous sky
Asters - look up Astraea. (Though aren't they really named after stars?)
