The idea is, of course, to disturb the customer's feeling of gravitational attraction by combining at any given moment so many different forms of attraction that his sense of location cannot adjust itself fast enough. -- Paul Hindemith

"Biology also shows us that we can expand our cognitive domain. This arises through a novel experience brought forth through reasoning, through the encounter with a stranger, or, more directly, through an expression of a biological interpersonal congruence that lets us see the other person and open up for him room for existence beside us. This act is called love, or, if we prefer a milder expression, the acceptance of the other person beside us in our daily living. This is the biological foundation of social phenomena: without love, without acceptance of others living beside us there is no social process and, therefore, no humanness. Anything that undermines the acceptance of others, from competency to the possession of truth and on to ideologic certainty, undermines the social process because it undermines the biologic process that generates it. Let us not deceive ourselves: we are not moralizing, we are not preaching love. We are only revealing the fact that, biologically, without love, without acceptance of others, there is no social phenomenon. If we still live together that way, we are living indifference and negation under a pretence of love." --Humberto Maturana, Ph.D and Franciso Verala, Ph.D, THE TREE OF KNOWLEDGE
Aya, I hope this comment reaches You, your Family and Friends in great health and spirits.
I wanted to take time to personally Thank You for your valuable friendship and never ending support of me and my musical endeavors. Mere words can't express the depth of gratitude felt in my heart however, they're all I have so THANK YOU !
I'd also like to wish You and your Family Peaceful, Joyous and Loving times as the Holidays approach. May you be blessed with all that you desire for yourself and for your loved ones.

You can read or listen to the audio version short story I'm writing, "Down In The Ground" broken up into several Tweets. They're available to read on my Twitter page, http://twitter.com/mr_angel_rosa
I'm sure it's been done, but I was talking with a friend of mine and told him how I thought it would be interesting to write a short fiction piece on Twitter, in real time. Each successive Tweet feeding off the previous. Then it occurred to me, why not also lay down the story in audio format, sort of like an old fashioned radio show; actually, more like a book-on-tape.
Thanks for your time and extra thanks in advance for listening!
