serupa tapi tak sama

Mikrokosmos is probably my favourite track on the latest BTS album, Persona --
(an aside: read BBC's article on how BTS delves into Jungian psychology!)

and yessss, I knew somebody would make an FMV with Kimi no Na Wa; 
it's just so lovely! and this fits so well.



You got me
When I see you, I dream
I got you
In those nights that seemed pitch black
The lights we saw in each other
We're saying the same thing
The stars that shine more brightly
in the darkest night

The deeper the night is,
the brighter the star lights shine

💜

It feels like I haven't blogged for so very long,
that in some way, I feel like I've forgotten how to.

I feel different,
which has wrought many different things in real life, maybe -- (subtly?)
hopefully mostly for good?
I've been writing less though! I do think this is also a roll-on effect;
that's a little disheartening, I do want to get back to writing.

I feel lost without words.
Am I me if I can't articulate myself.

I probably sound insanely incoherent to every reader at the moment;
it's just that recently, I've been experiencing life differently and not in words... 
(do I make sense...?)
or not in the self-narrative format we live out most of our lives,
and it's hard to convey this in words.

For the first time (in my life? in a long time?), I've discovered / experienced
how truth and beauty surpass the boundaries of language. 
My love for language falls second place right now.
There is so much more to life, to this world, 
to every moment,
than the logical and conscious patterns of our mind.

La vie en rose

April is a wonderful month.


This song floated to me today.
It’s lovely, and feels timely.
I’ll be in Paris later this week.
