Pablo undertands me

Sonnet LXXXI
From: �Cien sonetos de amor�
�Already, you are mine. Rest with your dream inside my dream.�

~ Pablo Neruda
Moon on Lake Erie, Conneaut, Ohio


Already, you are mine. Rest with your dream inside my dream.
Love, grief, labour, must sleep now.
Night revolves on invisible wheels
and joined to me you are pure as sleeping amber.

No one else will sleep with my dream, love.
You will go we will go joined by the waters of time.
No other one will travel the shadows with me,
only you, eternal nature, eternal sun, eternal moon.

Already your hands have opened their delicate fists
and let fall, without direction, their gentle signs,
you eyes enclosing themselves like two grey wings,

while I follow the waters you bring that take me onwards:
night, Earth, winds weave their fate, and already,
not only am I not without you, I alone am your dream.

Woman-to-woman guarding



Friday evening to Sunday morning in DAP, then Sunday afternoon to Tuesday morning in Viewpoint Hotel! Goodness, I have infected my daughter with the can't-finish-a-paper-unless-I work-in-Tagaytay virus! We managed to complete most of what we set out to do thanks to long, late nights fueled by food & coffee from a nearby, friendly cafe.  I guess I should start saving up for the next one!

A date at Clawdaddy's




If crabs are your thing, then don't fail to have some of the best I've ever had. I swear one could drown in all that garlic! Oysters were heavenly too!

The Search




Instead of soul-searching (which I usually do on my birthdays since I turned golden), I spent my 50+ birthday searching for the best sisig in Angeles, Pampanga. Another discovery was the original Red Crab in Clark. Yummy day!

Goddess daw

In a quiz which asks "Which ancient goddess are you"; this is what I got:                          

 Indo-Iranian Goddess Anahita of Water...      You are easygoing and open-minded, though passionate about your values. You have much integrity and resonate elegance and inner beauty. You are a deep thinker, caring and sensitive.   Wow, if only all of these were true! Hahaha!

Celdran

I would have been offended by Celdran's act if I were there! The mass in not only about the clergy presiding over an event. It is more about a community of the faithful coming together to worship God. If some people do not share in the belief that the mass is sacred, then they should at least respect our belief that it is so!
