i cannot wait for the leaves to finally fall, to engulf everything in their orange hue. i want to look out of my window, while drowning in melancholy and investing one last hope in living, and i want to simply bask myself in that weather. i want to hold my darkest, saddest book in my hand and sip beverages with a strong aroma of spices while enjoying mundane things about living.

Quote
If every purely arbitrary or purely random connection of form and matter is grotesque, then philosophy has its grotesques as well as poetry; only it knows less about them and has not yet been able to find the key to its own esoteric history. There are works of philosophy that are a tissue of moral discords from which one could learn disorganization, or in which confusion is properly constructed and symmetrical.
Friedrich Schlegel, Athenaeum Fragments

Beautiful words from the film “The Menu”
thalassic: relating to the sea.
arbitrary:  based on random choice or personal whim, rather than any reason or system.
degustation: (French word) the action or an instance of tasting especially in a series of small portions.
buttress: a projecting support of stone or brick built against a wall.
advocate:  a person who publicly supports or recommends a particular cause or policy.
ephemeral:  lasting for a very short time.
~~~~
The Menu is an excellent film. See my thoughts here.
Our state of being here is ephemeral. We should spend it only doing what we enjoy. Please remember that in 2023.

She said there was comfort to be found in the permanence of mathematical truths, in the lack of arbitrariness and the absence of ambiguity. In knowing that the answers may be elusive, but they could be found. They were there, waiting, chalk scribbles away.

"In its original literal sense, 'moral relativism' is simply moral complexity. That is, anyone who agrees that stealing a loaf of bread to feed one's children is not the moral equivalent of, say, shoplifting a dress for the fun of it, is a relativist of sorts. But in recent years, conservatives bent on reinstating an essentially religious vocabulary of absolute good and evil as the only legitimate framework for discussing social values have redefined 'relative' as 'arbitrary'."
Ellen Jane Willis, writer (14 December 1941-2006)

What’s your idea of a perfect date?
DD/MM/YYYY, I find other formats a bit confusing.
