What else should our lives be but a continual series of beginnings, of painful settings out into the unknown, pushing off from the edges of consciousness into the mystery of what we have not yet become.

– David Malouf –

To know someone here or there with whom you can feel there is understanding in spite of distances or thoughts expressed – That can make life a garden.

By nature, a storyteller is a plagiarist. Everything one comes across–each incident, book, novel, life episode, story, person, news clip–is a coffee bean that will be crushed, ground up, mixed with a touch of cardamom, sometimes a tiny pinch of salt, boiled thrice with sugar, and served as a piping-hot tale.
