Santana Row by G.Garchar

Find what you love and let it kill you.

Let it drain you of your all, cling onto your back, and weigh you down into eventual nothingness.

Let it devour your remains – for all things will kill you, both slowly & fastly – but it’s much better to be killed by a lover.

Bicycle Route to Santana Row

Ride we had planned to take last year.

My biking buddy and I were stretching the concept of aging. We were trusting our instincts to keep us out of cars’ way, and pushing forward in terms of distance, testing our survival chances one way & another.

Walk a fine line between flexibility & consistency. A strategist must have faith in his strategy and the courage to follow it through and still be open-minded enough to realize when a change of course is required.

Not darkness, for that implies an understanding of light. Not silence, for that suggests a familiarity with sound. Not loneliness, for that requires knowledge of others. But still, faintly, so tenuous that if it were any less it wouldn’t exist at all: awareness.
