As Told by Shakespeare

Marriage of two minds.

Epic rewritten.

~

As far as I know, the entire concept of marriage has been wildly violated. Problem is, most people ignore the only thing that matters most in wedlock: the minds.

We so often underestimate the power of well-matched thoughts. Successful marriages aren’t the ones that last forever just for the children’s sake, but real marriage of minds is what lasts even after a mutual disagreement.

If only people’s minds were married instead of just the bodies, we might have a completely different society. Everything we do would have more clarity. We’d be a society of people who deeply understand and sincerely respect each other.

And that would be a world worth protecting.

Desire

We all have a list of things we feel is important, but somehow we could never express them as powerfully as we’d like to. What do you do when you suddenly find out that someone had already spoken (and damn well too) of almost everything on your list?

Sylvia Plath.

I can’t get enough of her. I’ve shared her words before, and I’ll do it again.

This is how we are, aren’t we? Think for a minute, what do you desire the most, and what does it do to you?

Apart from rum, of course.

Doing Nothing

I’m currently reading Paulo Coelho’s The Witch of Portobello and I just can’t understand why I didn’t get hold if this book earlier. It’s one of those books that need to be cherished, and every word experienced.

And I’m taking my time with it. And I don’t claim that this book teaches me something worth knowing. Nope, mostly, it just reminds me of things I know already, but haven’t thought of in a while.

And that’s why I’m enjoying every moment of this particular book.
