Wake up

Random quote of the day:


"It is useless to tell me not to reason, but to believe. You might as well tell a man not to wake but sleep. And then to bully with torments, and all that! I cannot help thinking that the menace of hell makes as many devils as the severe penal codes of inhuman humanity make villains."

—Lord Byron, Detached Thoughts, in The Works of Lord Byron: Letters and Journals, Vol. 2, ed. Rowland E. Prothero

Things that made me happy meme - Day Seven

I was listening to Iz this weekend and all week long this song has been caught in my head, especially after I looked up this YouTube for a friend, but I don't mind. In fact, I listened to it again this afternoon. It's haunting and sad, but so beautiful that it makes me happy.


Things that made me happy: music.

Music is my sustenance. I love all kinds, require great variety. Well, maybe not the big production Country á la Garth Brooks, or Diva Music á la Celine Dion, and I know this makes me hopelessly old, but I don't like rap. Hip hop, yes. Polka, not so much, though I don't hate it. Mostly, most music makes me happy.
