3 thoughtful things
Oct. 1st, 2011 11:43 pm2) Because it's been a long time since I did a Book of Qualities quote, I present... POWER.
Power made me a coat. For a long time I kept it in the back of my closet. I didn't like to wear it much, but I always took good care of it. When I first started wearing it again, it smelled like mothballs. As I wore it more, it started fitting better, and stopped smelling like mothballs.
I was afraid if I wore the coat too much someone would want to take it or else I would accidentally leave it in the dojo dressing room. But it has my name on the label now, and it doesn't really fit anyone else. When people ask me where I found such a becoming garment, I tell them about the tailor, Power, who knows how to make coats that you grow into. First, you must find the courage to find him and ask you to make you a coat. Then, you must find the patience inside yourself to wear the coat until it fits.
3) We saw Laurie Anderson's show, Delusion, tonight. She talked about the concept of dying, in some final way, long after your physical death when someone says your name for the very last time. It's a somber thought, but I realized that I don't know if people would talk about me if I died, or what they would say. In what contexts would I even come up? "

Ah, well, it's not happening soon.
