Memories of a Beatnik - Diane Di Prima


So I opened the book and (as I had read one just recently, that didn't belong to me) thought: "this one. I'm gonna mark it all over. A book to mark it all")
I noticed on the first page, an underlined paragraph, from a previous time that I started the book.

"Or, as my eleven-year-old daughter recently said to me, remembering the early years of her childhood: I really miss those old days. They were hard, but they were beautiful."

So yes, I do think / I still think that the moments in which you open books are completely and utterly perfect.

Un Mundo Feliz - Aldous Huxley

Letter to Naida:

I'm trying to write a bit every day, and also read. Just finished reading a Brave New World by Aldous Huxley. Oh so inspiring and challenging, such a philosophical science fiction tale. I love when writers analyze humanity. We are so weak yet beautiful.

It's such bad weather here, thunderstorms and floods everywhere. At least mornings smell like rain, and that's nice.
