Dan O'Mell Port on MM








And when thou art spoiled, what wilt thou do? Though thou clothest thyself with crimson, though thou deckest thee with ornaments of gold, though thou rentest thy face with painting, in vain shalt thou make thyself fair; thy lovers wilt seek thy soul of thee inside thou.

A dream will always triumph over reality, once it is given the chance. (Stanisław Lem)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
What about photography? Don't assume that documentary is real. Because even forensic photos are out of touch with reality and some sort of interpretation in some particular moment, under some particular angle, etc. It's always interpretation, by person behind the viewfinder, or camera itself, but it's not reality per se. A photo is a triumph over reality, as well as a dream, too. By the way, does love depend upon a fragile balance between dream and sense of reality?

SIMPLICITY IN LIFE

"Receive with simplicity everything that happens to you"
Rashi (הרב שלמה בן יצחק)

Cut sophisticated BS --> Times Slipping Along. If it speaks to the heart, please look at Simplicity Is The Essence Of Happiness... by Bob Kramer

SIMPLICITY IN MUSIC
--------------------------------------------------------
Arvo Pärt: "I have discovered that it is enough when a single note is beautifully played. This one note, or a silent beat, or a moment of silence, comforts me. I work with very few elements - with one voice, two voices. I build with primitive materials - with the triad, with one specific tonality. The three notes of a triad are like bells and that is why I call it tintinnabulation."
