It always happens as a slow unraveling ...
It never happens in such a manner that you can directly observe it. It always happens as a slow unraveling ... There is no single point, no direct indication of "This is where it happened". There

The most perfect of lies caught up in an infinite loop of its own web, a connectedness that cannot be explained by the preceding or of what to come; a randomness that cannot be untangled. A lie that reproduces

It was a cold and miserable day. It was a day that you just wanted to take a book and curl up in bed. But we were out and about, because we were travelling, and some bad weather would not bother us. Close

I am my difference
There is an idea, if it comes from Maurice Merleau-Ponty or from Hans-Georg Gadamer I am not sure, that simply states: unity-in-difference. The African philosophy of ubuntu for some scholars hold a similar

Three Ales from Tsitsikamma Brewery for #BeerSaturday
After visiting the Tsitsikamma brewery, I had to try their other beers. I bought three of their beers, a normal ale, dark ale, and a grapefruit ale. These were three vastly different beers, and I had to

Famished by Anna Vaught - A Short Story Collection of Food and Horror | A FermentedReview
