Quote of the day

...I am a frayed and nibbled survivor in a fallen world, and I am getting along. I am aging and eaten and have done my share of eating too. I am not washed and beautiful, in control of a shining world in which everything fits, but instead am wandering awed about on a splintered wreck I've come to care for, whose gnawed trees breathe a delicate air, whose bloodied and scarred creatures are my dearest companions, and whose beauty beats and shines not in its imperfections but overwhlemingly in spite of them, under the wind-rent clouds, upstream and down. Simone Weil says simply, 'Let us love the country of here below. It is real; it offers resistance to love.'

--Annie Dillard

WOW!

Like that quote!

Did you cross-post it any communities for:

  • quotes

  • randomness

  • weirdness

  • almost anything goes



So many communities for those are dying
and gasping for air for lack of active posters.

My community [livejournal.com profile] addmetoo is wildly successful,
but i'm getting bored with it.;P

Haven't listened to either of my launchcast stations:

  • purrkittysrequest

  • byanymeasure


in five million years . . .

ttyl.

Glad you liked it! I did post it to a community, as a matter of fact, but not one of the ones you mentioned. :-)

I haven't been listening to Launchcast much recently either, mostly because my connection speeds haven't been all that good. Not much point in tuning in an online station when the phone line won't let you hear an entire song!
