"The world breaks every one and afterward many are strong at the broken places. But those that will not break it kills. It kills the very good and the very gentle and the very brave impartially. If you are none of these you can be sure it will kill you too but there will be no special hurry."
~ Ernest Hemingway, A Farewell To Arms



"Our lives disconnect and reconnect, we move on, and later we may touch one another, again bounce away. This is the felt shape of a human life, neither simply linear nor wholly disjunctive nor endlessly bifurcating, but rather this bouncey sequence of bumping into's and tumblings apart."
~ Salman Rushdie, The Ground Beneath Her Feet

Divine Milieu...Thunder Road...Again...



I love this song! It is so much a part of me now, it is embedded in my story - I first heard it when I was around sixteen and I am sure that I have listened to it at least once (often many more times) a year since then. It takes me to so many places and faces and it it is still doing that for me now with new faces and places. Some lines from the song make me smile as I remember and some make me smile for what it brings to mind now at this time in my life...
