"Humanism - 
the belief that , while our lives

should be devoted to happiness, 
they are impoverished 

without and idea of 
happiness

deeper than mere property-bound 
prosperity.

The special virtue of freedom 
is not that it makes you richer

 and more powerful

but that it gives you more time 
to understand

what it means to be 
alive. "

Adam Gropnik

" I do not believe

 they've run out of 

surprises. "

Larry Niven 

" The distinction

 between the past, present
and future 

is only a stubbornly persistent

 illusion. "

Life itself

-they say-

is an illusion

from which

we awaken.

More and more

we know that

less and less

is

"Hard Fact.'

We live in the 

interpretation zone.

My narrative

and yours

are very different.

My inspiring leader

is your bete noire.

And vice

versa.

It's pointless

to be angry

at a dreamer.

For in doing so

we turn our dreams

into nightmares.

Sleep on!

All I can do

is to love you.

For after all,

in this realm of

dreams,

and sudden awakenings

what is there

but fellowship?

Sail on,

sail on

your cloud of dreaming.

And thank YOU kindly

for anchoring it

here

for a while.

                        fondly, cloudia
