Listening to Bobina &#8211; Invisible Touch (Ferry Corsten remix) on a very early Sunday morning. Been writing steadily the past few weeks, getting up early, making a pot of tea, putting my headphones on. (I got new headphones!) 
The graphic in the YouTube video reminds me of the awesome wallpapers at DeskTopography.

		<title>Arendt on the fear to judge</title>
		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;There exists in our society a widespread fear of judging … [B]ehind the unwillingness to judge lurks the suspicion that no one is a free agent, and hence the doubt that anyone is responsible or could be expected to answer for what he has done… . Who am I to judge? actually means We’re all [...]]]></description>

		<title>what is imagination?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Is imagination merely a talent, such as a good singing voice, the ability to &#8220;make things up: or &#8220;think things up&#8221; or &#8220;get ideas&#8221;? Or is it, like science, a way of knowing things that can be known in no other way? We have much reason to think that it is a way of knowing [...]]]></description>

		<title>are you living up to your potential?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
It might be silly, but I am fascinated with reading about top athletes, and what they make of themselves over the course of their career. Kobe Bryant is of course an inspiring example, someone who not only has so much potential, but also works *so* hard at pushing himself towards excellence. What we often forget [...]]]></description>

		<title>til the end of the dream .. not quite</title>
		<description><![CDATA[sometimes the dream world and the real intersect in a really bizarre way. 
it&#8217;s sunday in boston, and the fall weather is gorgeous, but i haven&#8217;t been able to see much of it today. mostly because my body was telling me: you&#8217;re tired, you need to rest. so that&#8217;s what i did. it&#8217;s 3pm now, [...]]]></description>

		<title>a ray of moonlight</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
the grey skies are vast. a ray of moonlight breaking through. connecting the present and the past. hold on to it, watch it flow between your fingers. a moment of transcendence, time transfixed. images of you, of us, from the past, present, future, all replayed in that basket of moonlight.

(some time in 2005, philadelphia)

		<title>to the girl in washington square park</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
In the park. Music in the distance. Reading.
When a girl came to sit next to me. Quietly.
With headphones.
Her look drifting off. Smoked a cigarette.
I lean back, and gaze at the sky.
After a while she puts out her cigarette
picks up a pocket book from her bag. Japanese.
I’m breathing real slow. Life is good.
(to the girl with [...]]]></description>

		<title>the train back</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
green trees solitary, passing by
quiet, desolate towns
stories, unspoken and untouched
clouds, still, stern and magnificent. looking over us.
blue, endless blue sky
the end of summer
the end of all summers

		<title>listening to 許哲珮 － 汽球 balloon</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
有時候很想聽一些表達你心情的歌。
這兒，這一刻，現在，整天，想的人，這心情。
找到了，很想跟你關心的人分享。
才發現音樂不是真的universal。
（h/t herman）

汽球
作詞：許哲珮　作曲：許哲珮
黑的白的紅的黃的　紫的綠的藍的灰的
你的我的他的她的　大的小的圓的扁的
好的壞的美的醜的
新的舊的各種款式各種花色任你選擇
黑的白的紅的黃的　紫的綠的藍的灰的
你的我的他的她的　大的小的圓的扁的
好的壞的美的醜的
新的舊的各種款式各種花色任我選擇
飛的高高越遠越好　剪斷了線它就死掉
壽命短短高興就好　喜歡就好沒大不了
越變越小越來越小　快要死掉也很驕傲
你不想說就別再說　我不想聽不想再聽
就把一切誓言當作汽球一般隨它而去
我不在意不會在意　放它而去隨它而去
汽球　飄進雲裡　飄進風裡　結束生命
汽球　飄進愛裡　飄進心裡　慢慢死去
