Happy 2015!

 With lots of crazy projects

 crazy journeys

and cozy places to be!

Turtle and crocodile

 Watching the billions of stars

Finding the night beetles a little too friendly

Eating on mangoes, pineapples and papayas

 Writing, planting and swimming

 It's so good to have your baby back home!

Flame and water

Surprise!

Where are you?

Gone into the wilderness of the unknown.

Run run

 Better Enmore than O'Riordan!

Tree warmers

Art students are having fun!

Trip to Atrophy

Vigorous writing is concise.

A sentence should contain no unnecessary words, 

a paragraph no unnecessary sentences,

for the same reason that a drawing should have no unnecessary lines

and a machine no unnecessary parts.

This requires not that all writer make all sentences short 

or avoid all detail and treat subjects only in outline,

but that every word tell.*

*William Strunk "The Elements of Style"

Dear old philodendron

 Cleaning up this old plant

is like

 re-discovering

a favorite jewellery

 a colorful painting

a loved tune

 an amazing old city,

 It's like meeting

a treasured friend

 Understanding all of her stories

the new ones, 

the past ones.

It's like facing together

life's tangled path.
