sometimes i have to remember that there are so many lovely things in the world, like driving very slowly around town by myself at night following the path of two rabbits chasing each other and listening to this song. i have to remember that those moments exist where, for some unknown reason, everything just feels so connected in the most wonderful way.

“I always feel as if I’m struggling to become someone else. As if i’m trying to find a new place, grab hold of a new life, a new personality. I suppose it’s part of growing up, yet it’s also an attempt to re-invent myself. By becoming a different me, I could free myself of everything…
But I always hit a dead end. No matter where I go, I still end up me. What’s missing never changes. The scenery may change, but I’m still the same old incomplete person. The same missing elements torture me with a hunger that I can never satisfy. I think that lack itself is as close as I’ll come to defining myself.”

- Haruki Murakami, South of the Border, West of the Sun (solsetur)
