"…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)

Savoring 1100
Ahhh, take a moment to savor it. This is the 1100th post to my blog since I started it. Even though I don't feel like I am writing as much, I still enjoy the act of blogging. So, I had logged on tonight with the intention to write about something else - but that can wait, it wasn't that important. Instead, I am going to take a long moment here tonight and just - savor the moment. Ahhhhhh.
