Time is a river which sweeps me along, but I am the river; it is a tiger which destroys me, but I am the tiger; it is a fire which consumes me, but I am the fire. The world, unfortunately, is real;
I, unfortunately, am Borges.
-Jorge Luis Borges, "A New Refutation of Time"

elsiee - Welcome! :)
This is such a lovely quote, it struck me so much that I read over it four times. I wanted to reply to the comment you left on my blog but Blogger wouldn't let me (oh for a reply feature!) so I popped over here, only to be struck by everything! I'm going to enjoy exploring your lovely world on my lunchbreak, thank you so much for coming into my world.
