 Words Dana Guia The world does not need words. It articulates itself in sunlight, leaves, and shadows. The stones on the path are no less real for lying uncatalogued and uncounted. The fluent leaves speak only the dialect of pure being. The kiss is still fully itself though no words were spoken. And one word transforms it into something less or other-- illicit, chaste, perfunctory, conjugal, covert. Even calling it a kiss betrays the fluster of hands glancing the skin or gripping a shoulder, the slow arching of neck or knee, the silent touching of tongues. Yet the stones remain less real to those who cannot name them, or read the mute syllables graven in silica. To see a red stone is less than seeing it as jasper-- metamorphic quartz, cousin to the flint the Kiowa carved as arrowheads. To name is to know and remember. The sunlight needs no praise piercing the rainclouds, painting the rocks and leaves with light, then dissolving each lucent droplet back into the clouds that engendered it. The daylight needs no praise, and so we praise it always-- greater than ourselves and all the airy words we summon. |

I understand what you mean about finding it difficult to concentrate on anime unless you have a lot of investment in it. This has happened to me as well, as I've got older. I am quite regular and consistent in my viewing though (it's pretty much a nightly thing for me), and I watch anime for mental health and relaxation (and perhaps this is my key reason), more than because I have a burning or intense passion or enthusiasm for it. It's almost like a form of self-medication in that it helps me relax at night, and will help send me off to sleep with a smile on my face. Sometimes it will provide an enjoyable/happy escape, or a release from pressures, anxieties, existential angst, overthinking/over-analyzing, or too much pensive rumination. Sometimes, it's a form of bliss when you're able to totally forget yourself, and become completely absorbed in something other than yourself.
I think the best series I could recommend to you right now (that you've not seen yet) would be: Girls' Last Tour (healing, relaxing, and philosophical), and Oshi no Ko (showbiz/idol drama and mystery). I don't know if they'd be your cup of green tea or not, but I gave them both a 10, and certainly, Oshi no Ko has been one of the biggest and highest rated recent titles making waves in the anime community.
Anyway, take care, and I hope you've managed to successfully escape and elude that yakuza-style boss you told me about before ;)
No need to apologise, I know that real life always needs to come first. I hope that you have been well.
Hearing that the first quarter of the year has ended scares me a little since I have not done as many things as I should have, but it gives me motivation to do better for the rest of the year.
hindi ko kaya mag intermittent fasting lagi akong nagugutom dahil sa diabetes na rin
wala na bungal na talaga ako lol
ganun pa rin bagong taon same pa rin na buhay
Omori. The characters are on my current forum set. I am 5 hours or so in the game, and I haven't found Basil yet, but so far I'm liking it story-wise. What I like about the game as well is the soundtrack and the concept of emotions during battle.
Ahahaha sorry for intruding but I just felt like I had to reply... so did you finish it? How was it? c:
Ah, yes, we got to know a very little bit about each other - within the realms of MAL, of course. I remember writing a medium-length comment that you never really got back to and I presumed it was because something came up on your end or perhaps you were just at a loss for words or maybe there just wasn't anything that could be said to that message. That's OK. I sometimes feel or react like that to messages I receive.
How are you doing with the whole privacy thing and MAL at the moment? Well, I've just restricted access to a lot of things like my profile comments, watching history/updates, and anime list because there have been some dreadful people IRL who are constantly spying on what I'm writing and receiving in the hopes of making trouble for me or finding out private information.
Yeah, I went through a username change last year, partly for the reasons of people stalking and spying on me IRL. By all means, feel free to call me by either name you feel more familiar with, but if we are to get more thoroughly reacquainted again, then you can call me by my new name - Yomi or Yomisuki.
I noticed you've not been watching any anime for quite a while. Have you dropped out for the foreseeable future, or are you contemplating getting back into it any time soon?
No issues, we can talk more in PM if you want.
It did not start very well for me, but is improving a lot those past two weeks.
