William ShakespeareIt's harder to build than destroy. To build is to engage and change. In jazz, we call progressing harmonies changes. Changes are like obstacles on a speed course.

Each moment is a procession from the future into the past and the sweet spot is always the present. Live in that sweet spot. Be present.

The source is within you And this whole world is springing up from it.

More flowers I noted, yet I none could see But sweet or colour it had stol'n from thee.

He tasted like regret in the shadows of trees and in the glow of the anarchist's suit collection. She kissed him long and soft, and when she pulled herself away, she touched his mouth with her fingers...She did not say goodbye. She was incapable, and after a few more minutes at his side, she was able to tear herself from the ground. It amazes me what humans can do, even when streams are flowing down their faces and they stagger on.
