Luego de días y días y semanas... sólo puedo decir:
grasshopper.

Once

Una vez escribí:
"Forzar la inspiración es complicado y los sitios a los que se llega con ello no son gratificantes, como se creía".

El mood

Tengo ganas de entrar en un mood depre... no por querer estar deprimido, sino por aquello de disfrutar hasta la tristeza, la melancolía.
Yo creo que sí tengo de dónde agarrar para sentirme triste aunque, repito, no es lo que deseo.

Bastará con escuchar música tristona, lenta, romántica... tengo mucha de esa.

So EMO... A huevo.

Te regalo mi sol, mi playa...

Determinación

Habrá cambios.
Necesito cambios.
Tengo la determinación.
Ahora sólo me hace falta más determinación.

Más de shard

Something's broken.
It's been like this for milennia.
Then some whole fantasy
threw its shards into the land.

Cristaline, bright, coloured and dark
the shards flow above the grass
looking for other shards, whose shapes
fix in their own.

It's been told so many times:
we're parts of a whole.
But it merely throws us in the hole
of desperation and overwhelm.

The shards can't fix all in one,
for that's something that can only come to pass
in eternity.

But shards can turn into mirrors
if enough of them come together.
It can be a shiny mirror, coloured or even dark
and it can mirror the sense of whole.

I've found a shard that fits my shape.
What we mirror... that's the reflection of whole.

Right where I belong

Para darle contexto a shard, posteo la letra de la canción Right where it belongs, del disco With Teeth, de la banda estadounidense de rock industrial Nine Inch Nails.

See the animal in his cage that you built
Are you sure what side you're on?
Better not look him too closely in the eye
Are you sure what side of the glass you are on?
See the safety of the life you have built
Everything where it belongs
Feel the hollowness inside of your heart
And it's all
Right where it belongs

What if everything around you
Isn't quite as it seems?
What if all the world you think you know
Is an elaborate dream?
And if you look at your reflection
Is it all you want it to be?
What if you could look right through the cracks?
Would you find yourself
Find yourself afraid to see?

What if all the world's inside of your head
Just creations of your own?
Your devils and your gods
All the living and the dead
And you're really all alone?
You can live in this illusion
You can choose to believe
You keep looking but you can't find the woods
While you're hiding in the trees

What if everything around you
Isn't quite as it seems?
What if all the world you used to know
Is an elaborate dream?
And if you look at your reflection
Is it all you want it to be?
What if you could look right through the cracks
Would you find yourself
Find yourself afraid to see?

La canción está ahora en el player. Escúchenla, léanla y entiendan el significado de shard.

Mes ajetreado y una revelación

Mayo comenzó con hartos pormenores, mucha actividad, diversión y reencuentros.

Hoy descubrí cuál es mi palabra favorita. Esto porque un amigo una vez me lo preguntó.

Es shard. Un fragmento, generalmente de algún material cristalino.

Quiero ahondar más en lo que shard significa para mí, pero necesito pensarlo.
