It's about life

Life is a delicate membrane that wraps our existence.

S. Jobs.

"Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most important tool I've ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything - all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure - these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart." -Steve Jobs 

what is

The major problem we face is that what we need is tainted by what we want. There is the pure spirit/guardian fading in front of our eyes while we are being tricked with candy, prizes, and lust. Visually, we distance ourselves.  Notice the beauty which is ironically invisible.

It's about learning to dance in the rain."

Conpanion and Cheers

Companion; Compañero (Spanish); Copain (French) Companion

From the Latin "Companionem," which was, "one with whom you would eat bread" -- "Con" (with) and "Pan" (bread) -- presumably, your "companion" was someone with whom you would "break bread."

Cheers
From the Greek "Kara" for "face," via the Latin "Cara," and Old French "Chiere" for the same. 
So "Be of good cheer," means, "Put on a happy face."

Shore breeze

The shore road, The walk of choice ,The sway of the hair, The strips, The wall of buildings, The intervals of rest.

Floating shifted tiles

Seeking something, yet without resolution, his mind flowed with water, filling up invisible pores. The water does hold our reflections. If only we can breath it in he thought.

A Hermit's Hut

A hermit’s hut. What a subject for an engraving! Indeed, real images are engravings, for it is the imagination that engraves them on our memories. When we look at images of this kind…we start musing on primitiveness. And because of this primitiveness, restored, desired and experienced through simple images, an album of pictures of huts would constitute a textbook of simple exercises for the phenomenology of the imagination.

Parallax lines

     I couldn't help myself as her being was that of a beacon of light guiding me, drawing my attention perhaps away, towards, or adjacent to something invisible. She caught my eye as her lines continues to change as she shifted from perspectives. I had to maintain my focus on my path, yet how boring and repetitive has it became with her presence. Soon I found a path that lead me towards her, and I took it by instincts. Within her heart, her lines were spontaneously that of a different world from perceived, though as strong and of the same species/nature. This awareness is still that of a foreigner. 

Underpass

He wanted to swiftly cruise pass the hectic congestion which he knew occurs right before this particular underpass heading south. While some music was being played on the car stereo, he wondered about the niceness of waiting beneath the underpass for the red to change. The coolness within the shade was refreshing and calming. He sometimes finds himself orientating himself with his car to be fixed under some shade that presents itself. For here, under the shade, his patience for waiting is elongated.

Paulo Coelho

"Waiting hurts. Forgetting hurts. But not knowing which decision to take is the worst of suffering." 

"It's the possibility of having a dream come true that makes life interesting."

"There is only one thing that makes a dream impossible to achieve: the fear of failure." 

"When we love, we always strive to become better than we are. When we strive to become better than we are, everything around us becomes better too." 

"If I am really a part of your dream, you'll come back one day." 

"The simple things are also the most extraordinary things, and only the wise can see them." 

"The secret of life, though, is to fall seven times and to get up eight times." 

Terayama Shuji
