Very interesting news about Elizabeth Gilbert, author of Eat, Pray, Love. She left her husband of 12 years because she’s fallen in love. Of course fans are shocked but at least she’s honest, I have to respect that. Worth reading:

From Winterson’s The Poetics of Sex.
Damn, I love this woman. Where does she come up with this stuff? “My feelings for you are Biblical…you are hard to love well.”

So often we let go of the good ones, and regret eats you up for the rest of your life.

A beautiful story and a gorgeous and inspiring image to go with it. There are beautiful people in the world. As rare as it is, there are people who truly know how to foster a caring and nurturing environment, both for themselves and their partner.

كان ما قد كان مات
كتب فاروق جويدة عام ١٩٨٢ “عيناك أرض لا تخون
وفي عام ١٩٨٣ تراجع وقال
كان ما قد كان.. مات
كان في عينيك حلم
خانني وسط الطريق
قلت يوما.. إن في عينيك شيئا لا يخون
يومها صدقت نفسي
لم أكن اعرف شيئا
في سراديب العيون
كان في عينيك شيء لا يخون
لست ادري.. كيف خان؟
