My friend.. Today I made a kite with some of the kids here.
I attached a message to it, hoping it would reach you.
And as soon as it flew freely in our sky, I let go of the thread and watched it flew farther and farther.. hoping it wouldn't lose its way..
Perhaps it's still remembers our city that has became unfamiliar! My friend..
It seems that my kite is lost just like the pigeons and the phone numbers are lost,
and the way is lost, only a few dreams remain, or even less than a few...
My friend.. I still watch the sky, and watch the children's kites, perhaps one of them carries a message from you to me...

“My friend Wicker once said to be careful what and how you say what you’re really thinking to a woman. After much screwing up in that department with Emma, I’ve learned it’s not what you should hide, but what you say that makes her react the way she does. If I am unable to make myself clear, as I so often do, it’s more likely going to go to pot if I try to explain how I really feel. Instead, I rework in my brain what she needs to hear. I don’t always nail it, but I’m getting better at it. And it’s always the truth even if it isn’t how I see it.
Is it deceiving? No. It’s being considerate and aware that she is an emotional creature, and that for some crazy reason, craves my attention. I love to make her happy. My jumbled up mess of a mind isn’t important in the long run if it just confuses her. So I chose words carefully. When something goes right, I use it over and over again. -Ames”

It’s about becoming a person who doesn’t get owned by anything.”

Ever and again I open my door and look out on the darkness, my friend! I can see nothing before me. I wonder where lies thy path!
