My mother forbad us to walk backwards. That is how the dead walk, she would say. Where did she get this idea? Perhaps from a bad translation. The dead, after all, do not walk backwards but they do walk behind us. They have no lungs and cannot call out but would love for us to turn around. They are victims of love, many of them.

Thought:

“I do not know. I do not know where I am, and where I am going to, and where I’m coming from. I know nothing about life. But I have seen some beauty. I have seen some brief, brief glimpses of beauty and happiness. I have seen.”
