A quotation from S. P. Somtow

The ways of dead people are not our ways. They have a very oblique way of expressing themselves, and often they’ll tell you something that can be interpreted many ways; it gives them a way out while preserving their reputation for infallibility.

S. P. Somtow (b. 1952) Thai-American music composeer, conductor, author [Somtow Papinian Sucharitkul; สมเถา สุจริตกุล; Somthao Sucharitkun]
“Lottery Night,” World Fantasy Convention Program Book (1989-10)

I've got the habit of reading multiple books in parallel. I love to vary the pleasures and choose depending on my mood.

What I'm reading at the moment:

Braiding Sweetgrass

The Art of Holding Space
amzn.to/41QTEIj

Tristes Tropiques - I read it in #French, but here's an English translation:
amzn.to/4iKLXdu

A book in #Spanish about the view of the #Spirit World according to the #HuniKuin (#Kashinawa) #indigenous peoples.

"Hands" is a song by American singer #Jewel, released as the first #single from her second studio album, #Spirit (1998). Jewel wrote the song following an incident in which she considered stealing a #sundress after getting fired from various jobs due to #kidney troubles, and she decided that her hands were better suited to writing songs than stealing clothes. Written as one of the last songs for the album.
