fragments of quiet intelligence
There is a manner in which certain things ask to be written, not so that they may be found, but because to exist in silence, for too long, eventually becomes insufficient. It is not urgency. It is something closer to a necessity that makes no noise, waiting patiently until it discovers the proper form. This archive was born in such a way.
Not as a diary. Not as a blog. Not as something that is updated merely for the sake of appearing alive. It is a place where certain thoughts come to rest, those which do not dissolve, those which return, those which insist with the silent obstinacy of things that truly belong to you...

Journey & Time
the sun sets too late
dear sun, some of us are trying to understand what time it is # The Sun sets too late. There, solstice enthusiasm lasted twenty four hours before complaint. I love...
Laws & Universe
solstice
maximum daylight, minimum motivation to stay indoors # Solstice. Summer properly, astronomically, officially enough for me even if weather retains veto power. The Northern Hemisphere tilted toward the Sun, daylight...

solstice loading
the planet is approaching one of my favourite excuses to talk about axial tilt # Solstice loading. Tomorrow, and I am already annoying people. The longest days around now make...
Memory & Time
drawers that stay open
every room contains at least one object nobody puts away because apparently closure is difficult # Drawers that stay open. Literally first: I have one drawer that I never close...

serenity restored
apparently sometimes nothing needs fixing because it already stopped being broken # Serenity restored, although I don’t know exactly when it was lost enough to require restoration. Maybe that’s the...
