Through heart

"Adieu, dit le renard. Voici mon secret. Il est très simple: on ne voit bien qu'avec le cœur, l'essentiel est invisible pour les yeux."

- From Le petit prince

And then...

I fell.

...almost after 48 hours, I just fell.

"I can feel it comin' back again
Like a rollin' thunder chasing the wind
Forces pullin' from the centre of the Earth again

I can feel it..."

Next thing I knew

I was back here...and you were there!

As if I was never there...just like a faint dream that one can barely remember...

All Those Yesterdays: A letter from Pearl Jam to me

Don't you think you oughtta rest?
Don't you think you oughtta lay your head down?
Don't you think you want to sleep?
Don't you think you oughtta lay your head down tonight?

Don't you think you've done enough?
Oh, don't you think you've got enough, well maybe...
You don't think there's time to stop
There's time enough for you to lay your head down, tonight, tonight

Let it wash away
All those yesterdays

What are you running from?
Taking pills to get along
Creating walls to call your own
So no one catches? Drifting off and
Doing all the things we all do

Let them wash away
All those yesterdays
All those yesterdays
All those paper plates

You've got time, you've got time to escape
There's still time, it's no crime to escape
It's no crime to escape, it's no crime to escape
There's still time, so escape
It's no crime, crime...

Bavarian cream pie

Scene from the episode "The Soup Nazi" of season 7 of TV series Seinfeld.

Jerry: It was stupid of me.
Sheila: Well, it was very insulting.
Jerry: No, I know. I...I was really sort of half-joking.
Sheila: Well, behind every joke there's some truth.
Jerry: What about that Bavarian cream pie joke I told you? There's no truth to that. Nobody with a terminal illness goes from United States to Europe for a piece of Bavarian cream pie and then when he gets there and they don't have it he says:" Aw, I'll just have some coffee." There's no truth to that.
Sheila: Will, I guess you're right.
Jerry: So, am I forgiven, shmoopy?
Sheila: Yes, shmoopy.
Jerry: Aaaaw!
