É PRECISO SONHAR A CORES...

Certas coisas despertam um imediato, compulsivo, desejo de escrita. É claro que escrever sobre essas coisas é tentar acrescentar-lhes uma dimensão: a da subjectividade e da forma como elas se tornam numa presença real.

eat, pray & love

I’ve come to believe in something I call “The Physics of the Quest” – A force in nature governed by laws as real as the laws of gravity. The rule of the Quest Physics goes like this:

I can’t help but believe it… given my experience.

Attraversiamo!
