By the river.....!

Soon I will have unfettered access to the entire BG3 sound track and it will be everyone's problem.

Have you ever seen a break in the cloud?

The rain’s falling down but the sunshine’s shining

What has always impressed me by authors are the ones that write short stories. How are you able to shake me to my core in less than a few pages? In “Unaccustomed Earth” Lahiri writes stories about people living in all these different worlds physically and mentally. Lahiri dissects how we make it through all these strange lives we live in. I reside in many of these strange worlds. One world where I live with the world. Another where my mother’s happiness holds my goodness together. The story that gutted my heart was “Only Goodness.” I’ve only seen the worst and been disgusted by myself. “Only Goodness” that’s all I’ve ever wanted. How do you come to terms with how shame has dictated how you can live? The oldest daughter what a heavy title. Ordinanded from birth for a life of sacrifice. You make mistakes along the way which you still punish yourself to this day. I loved but not enough. I promised I’d bleed for you so you wouldn’t have to. But why can’t I look at you in the eyes? I've always tried escaping by finding a way to live through others lives. Lahiri writes about wants I’ve been ashamed to desire and the repentance I can’t seem to let the inner child in myself let go. I was young and had no guidance but still I should’ve known. I dreamt often of a life where no one needed me. A life alone of no commitments and no disappointments. I don’t see myself as the sacrificial lamb anymore. These stories reminded me of the pain I felt of living in all these worlds alone figuring my paths but also of the growth that always lead me to love.

thought i'd share a little live version of by the river, which was inspired by this cottage along the whanganui river road a few years back.

somewhere around 14h37 near the river Dordogne on 11/Jan/2023 I found graffiti art nicely framed by a stone wall. The stone framing made the statement… the cliche graffiti was forgettable. I used to document graffiti art and sell it in galleries. Now this genre doesn’t interest me at all. Since I rarely see graffiti art in St-Foy this was a cultural curiosity that in most other places would have been overlooked. I used to live for this genre of street art and honestly looking back in hindsight I wondered why I bothered.
