________________________________________________________________ *Thoughts to Ponder: (October 2001)From Thomas Hardy's Far From the Madding Crowd : "His title comes from Thomas Gray's 'Elegy Written in a Country Churchyard' (1751) which reflects that the peaceful lives of humble villagers far from the public arena contrast with, yet might well have been like, those of the famous in different circumstances: ' some mute inglorious Milton', 'some Cromwell guiltless of his country's blood'. But there is less peace in Hardy's world.." -By Professor Norman Vance* University of Sussex *Wrote the Introduction to Thomas Hardy's "Far From the Madding Crowd" (Wordsworth Classics) **This book was purchased outside the students' mensa of Freie Universitat Berlin. A Statement worth a Sacramento Treasure was read while in Sacramento,California, USA on June of 2007. It was by Ron Cunningham which goes.."....My heart and soul are anchored in the notion of the creative process. It's the journey, not the destination that is exhilarating." Sometimes, it is exciting to write continuously a story and wishing never to end it. 5/2008... the snow laden peaks of the blue mountains of Vancouver and the nice company of stranded friends...and that 2 whole family pizza at almost midnight... the fabulous Las Vegas (-my third and fourth visits)... the wonders of Washington , D.C. [palatial hotel] & Dallas, Texas...Can strangers be casual friends?... In situations of being stranded... these words are great reminders. . . "Thanks for the company. I need it" . ..From the movie- ONCE... How often do you find the right person? ONCE. I am just wishing for the right one to come! Oct.2008 at Taipei- I remembered I was in the lobby, sitting at the large square cushion seat and unintentionally listening to music of this hotel, "quirky" as what I read about it (among the latest hotels in Taipei) in an in- flight magazine, I was urged to write ... it searches the innermost of my soul to start thinking and being transported... to Paris...just like the basement delicious breakfast they have.. . it's a hodge -podge of uniqueness and Paris is one dash of it... The uniqueness of lifestyle in Taipei is something that one would love to search and savor...it's just comfortably different... June 2009*- Madison, O'Hare, NY, Cleveland and New Jersey~~ Each walk is a step to memory lane. I turned a milestone in my age and celebrated it through a milestone in space... I was aboard a flight from JFK--- where au revoir kisses abound---- to Seoul.... the "celebration" was reduced to less than 24 hours as it passed through the date zone and landed the next day... the wonders of New York are just incomparable! In writing, there's just so many places to start just like... leaving a heart. Of all, I'll choose- "I left my heart at Ports Authority!" in this bustling arena will there still be time to fall in love or seek for one? *Thanks to my sister, niece, gracious host at East Islip, NY and all other new acquaintances for making my trips to NY and NJ possible and memorable!
