Negative Capability

"Negative Capability” , my new favorite phrase- such valuable characteristic for a human being living in such ambiguous world...

S. 

Negative Capability = the willingness to embrace uncertainty, live with mystery, and make peace with ambiguity.

- John Keats

losing elegance in the name of comfort !

"Eating out of the box instead of a plate ; standing while eating; disowning plate napkins ; using acronyms instead of making conversations in full sentence" are all disappointing results of American's ultimate desire for comfort. .. The difference between going on either rout might be only few minutes of your time... ....In the end, choosing elegance, holding on to class and etiquette make us more distinguished in a crowd, help us win more hearts & keep adding simple momentarily pleasures to our lives. Do not lose it ! Salome N. Saz

Use It Up, Wear It Out, Make It Do, Or Do Without!

Days go by one after another, so rhythmic, so delicately that sometimes we miss the transition. Within time we're aging; so smoothly, so gracefully that sometimes we do not recall how and when this transformation occurred .. Right here , right now - we know more than ever before- "every moment counts & Time is of the essence." Use it joyfully & wisely. That's all that matters- there is no recycling momement for the time that's gone! Salome N. Saz

My Irreplaceable Safe Heaven!

Regardless of age, I've always had the soundest sleep in my parents' home. With a childlike joyous trembling heart I arrive at their door step . ...& the jinks of stress & sadness in times of depart- like a little child ready to let go of her parent's hands for the first time - longing to wet her toes for independence yet feeling scared of the unknown, the outsiders. Yes, independence has been my motto -since the day I let go of their hands for the first time, & I've been willingly living it for many many years now; yet, my parents' home is where I have the soundest sleep- where my mind sets any worldly trouble free -it's where I call "home"- my irreplaceable safe heaven
