“Isn’t it funny that at Christmas something in you gets so lonely for – I don’t know what exactly, but it’s something that you don’t mind so much not having at other times.”

oh were i a dying man
who had no need of your forevers
but was at peace with merely
being likedthen would i drink the
love of light and
ne’er be afraid of all
of beauty’s eventual endbut lo! i am a living man
who needs but hear a whisper… -
Sunny winter days rule!
looking out from the laundry balcony a few minutes ago, I decided not to go to Kaohsiung today:
who wants to go to the beach with me? -
spot my pozzy
a little mania goes a long way ;0)
led-style!
above, the view of my balcony from the parking lot
below, the view of my building from our local 7-11
mine is the blueish glow, top-right ;0)
i probably shouldn’t have shelled out the heaps of dosh for the blinkyness – but it sure is pretty!SA slang info from Wikipedia:
pozzy – house or home; place where one lives or hangs out. -

Don't quit – motivational poem
When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,
When the road you’re trudging seems all up hill,
When the funds are low and the debts are high,
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit,
Rest! if you must; but don’t you quit.Life is queer with its twists and turns,
As everyone of us sometimes learns,
And many a failure turns about
When he might have won had he stuck it out;
Don’t give up, though the pace seems slow;
You might succeed with another blow.Often the goal is nearer than
It seems to a faint and faltering man,
Often the struggler has given up
When he might have captured the victor’s cup.
And he learned too late, when the night slipped down,
How close he was to the golden crown.
Success is failure turned inside out;
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt;
And you never can tell how close you are,
It may be near when it seems afar;
So stick to the fight when you’re hardest hit;
It’s when things seem worst that you mustn’t quit.– by anonymous
