Wahan Kaun Hai Tera Musafir

You are all such hifi people!! I accidentally found open.spotify.com/track/5fQnot...
song this year and since I have also been asking the same question for many years it became an easy favourite. I could have easily hit a 100 if I had known this song earlier.

So many things on pending list and apartment lift is in repair 😬 will see

The best GiF responses ever 😁♥️

You are stil younger 😂

🥰

Spotify told me that my taste is that of an 80 year old. I have never felt so seen!!!

Late Echo BY JOHN ASHBERY Alone with our madness and favorite flower We see that there really is nothing left to write about. Or rather, it is necessary to write about the same old things In the same way, repeating the same things over and over For love to continue and be gradually different. Beehives and ants have to be re-examined eternally And the color of the day put in Hundreds of times and varied from summer to winter For it to get slowed down to the pace of an authentic Saraband and huddle there, alive and resting. Only then can the chronic inattention Of our lives drape itself around us, conciliatory And with one eye on those long tan plush shadows That speak so deeply into our unprepared knowledge Of ourselves, the talking engines of our day.

Alone with our madness and favorite flower
We see that there really is nothing left to write about.
Or rather, it is necessary to write about the same old things
In the same way, repeating the same things over and over
For love to continue and be gradually different. - JOHN ASHBERY

Now I have company!! Do you have nearby dosa places ?

You have made my craving more strong 😭

I feel like eating dosa and in this weather if I order in I won't eat it. I need to find some energy to fulfill my dream of eating one more hot hot dosa in a restaurant this year before it is too late. Small small dreams, but so hard to fulfill!! #pwme

🧶 Been slowly crocheting this Ronaldo #amigurumi for the Nephew 1. Only head, hair and details left - I mean all the hardest parts. 😬 After I finish this only, I am planning to start Messi for Nephew 2. Also, been feeling a bit better with cold weather but now to balance it pain has started. 😭

TO BE A DANGER Just once I'd like to be a danger To something in this world, Be hunted by cops And forced into hiding in the mountains, Since if they left me on the streets I'd turn the country around, Changing everyone's mind with a word. But I've lived so long a quiet life, In a world I've made small, That even my own mind changes slowly. I'm a danger only to myself, Like the daydreaming night watchman Smoking his cigar Near the dynamite shed. C.G. Hanzlicek Reference: The Cave, University of Pittsburgh Press, 2001.

Just once I'd like to be a danger
To something in this world,
Be hunted by cops
And forced into hiding in the mountains,
..
But I've lived so long a quiet life,
In a world I've made small,
That even my own mind changes slowly. I'm a danger only to myself,
-C.G.Hanzlicek

Shinto by Jorge Luis Borges When sorrow lays us low for a second we are saved by humble windfalls of mindfulness or memory: the taste of a fruit, the taste of water, that face given back to us by a dream, the first jasmine of November, the endless yearning of the compass, a book we thought was lost, the throb of hexameter, the slight key that opens a house to us, the smell of a library, or of sandalwood, the former name of a street, the colors of a map, an unforseen etymology, the smoothness of a filed fingernail, the date we were looking for, the twelve dark bell-strokes, tolling as we count a sudden physical pain. Eight million Shinto deities travel secretly throughout the earth. Those modest gods touch us--touch us and move on.

When sorrow lays us low
for a second we are saved
by humble windfalls
of mindfulness or memory:
the taste of a fruit, the taste of water,
that face given back to us by a dream,
the first jasmine of November,
the endless yearning of the compass, - Jorge Luis Borges

I am glad that I have enough handknitted socks for this Luru weather. 😂 I should have completed my pressed flowers cardigan which only needs the button band. Sigh, I lost a once in a lifetime opportunity I think. Thinking of going out to get a chance to wear my hats. 😁🧶

Me on a candlelit vigil for AIDS in 1987.

Me last week. Looking pretty healthy for 58 (28 years living with HIV).

I was diagnosed with #HIV in 1998, when I was 30.
Many of my friends had died of AIDS. I did not expect to live to 50.
I’m 58 now.
HIV treatment works.
Treatment also makes it impossible for me to pass HIV on during sex.
Ensure HIV treatment for all.
End HIV stigma.

I don’t usually ask for followers but @womensart2.bsky.social is eight followers away from 3,900.

Sinéad and I want to amplify the artists and makers of Bluesky. We are inclusive and LGBTQ2S+ first but we share an awful lot of art made by everyone here.

You might want to follow us.

Dear creative who dreads selling during the season of giving, Dear artist who wants to make a living but hates the noise,

Needed to hear this!!

"This season can be hard on people like you, people like us, people who create with feeling, and sell with a whisper instead of a megaphone. People who pour soul into something and then feel strange asking for a transaction in return. "

It’s World AIDS Day today.

I remember helping on the 4th and 5th ones in university and the fight against AIDS is still as relevant as ever. The WHO’s theme this year is ‘Overcoming disruption, transforming the AIDS response.’ and here are some of their core messages: www.who.int/campaigns/wo...
