_ COMMENTS/
buz : one of the precious who doesn't count distance and time. he always gives me his presence.
kurt.c : one day, i turned tv on (which i only do maybe once or 2 in a year). it was the news of his death. that's how i met him. ...another lefty guitarist has gone.
uzan (calligrapher) : i am learning the quiet emotions of him. it speaks without speaking.
nekohana : he surprises me with his existance of love. ---------

when i was little, i often dreamed that i was walking around the ceiling. i loved this situation and each time, i was happy to come back to this dream. then somehow i 've lost the way back. when i was little, i loved builting labyrinth with all my books. and put my 3 barbie dolls in it. at this point, i was getting feel empty and sad i didn't know why. maybe because the story came to the end... i felt strange with time.
