"…Living only for the moment, turning our full attention to the pleasures of the moon, the snow, the cherry blossoms and the maple leaves; singing songs, drinking wine, diverting ourselves just floating, floating….refusing to be disheartened, like a gourd floating along with the river current; this is what we call the floating world…” Asai Ryoi, in Ukiyo Monogatari (Tales of the Floating World, 1661)

Last Nights Dream
I had a dream last night that contained four dream elements that were strongly felt, though there was no coherent narrative. I dream of a very tall man who was laughing in happiness. I dreamt of a woman who was not tall, who was infected by the laughter. I dream of a designer duffle style bag. I dreamt of a lake surrounded by lush, deep green trees.
