I am lost.
I am lost in a sea of words that will never get to be seen in print. I struggle with the thought on how I will string the words and make a beautiful line or two. Not inspired? But I am. Busy? Not so much now. Lazy? Most likely. Come to think of it, I visit WordPress every day just to be updated with posts from online friends that I follow. I sometimes make comments but I still could not find the “like button” inside a post, not just mine but all posts that I visit. It is forever “loading”. You can’t see me liking your posts, rest assured though that I read them and I do sometimes get inspired by your words.
It’s a peaceful night.
I watched YouTube last night but it took so long to load (hopeless internet connection) so my son suggested that I sleep early and wake up early too to catch up on everything. I wonder why I had this sudden craving for cheese pimiento spread paired with a crunchy slice of Vienna bread. Since I don’t know how to make one, I have to find it on YouTube. Such a simple thing to do but I never tried it before. Talk about simple things that make one smile.
I hear the music.
Gosh, this is even crazier than before, it’s 1:55am and I should be in deep slumber but I am wide awake. The quarter moon and a sprinkling of stars are clearly visible from my window. It’s a beautiful sight and I am transported to another world while I listen to Richard Clayderman’s instrumental music. I have several CDs of Richard but it is nice to listen on YouTube when the internet connection is good. Another favorite is Kenny G. I could listen all morning to their music and not get bored. Listening to Kenny G. always reminds me of the movie Dying Young and as always I can relate to the whole story, from the point of view of someone who has to struggle with health issues. I was lucky enough to find the book on a sale bin at Diplomat. The book was written by Marti Leimbach. I love the movie adaptation better though. Sorry Marti, you made me cry but not as much as Victor and Hillary did.
Oh, it’s John Green!
Last weekend, Nissa brought her boxed set of John Green books which her sis-in-law gave her on her birthday last month. I am not a fan of YA books. So far, the only John Green book that I read was The Fault In Our Stars and even wrote a short review at Goodreads. I am giving these a go as soon as I find time to buy a plastic cover at NBS. Nissa never goes without covering her books first before reading. Here are the titles included in the set:
- Looking for Alaska
- An Abundance of Katherines
- Paper Towns
- Will Grayson, Will Grayson
- The Fault In Our Stars
Are you a John Green fan? Join me in another reading marathon. By the way, Richard is playing the song Feelings now.
I can understand all those feelings so well Arlene. I am tempted to add, ‘I know how you feel’, but do we ever really know how each other is feeling, deep down?
Sadly, I do not share your appreciation of Richard Clayderman, though he can play a piano very well.
Best wishes from England, as always, Pete.

I was about to ask, “why are you still up?” I suddenly remembered we are on a different time zone. Hahaha…I love Richard Clayderman.
Thanks Pete!
