Birthday

a few more marks left on the world a few more lessons learnt a few more breaths spent   I cannot assess the exact impact -parameters being frequently redefined   another year another cake another birthday I celebrate life…. https://amanpan.com/2019/06/17/brewnspew-cafe-june-17-2019-%f0%9f%a5%82happy-birthday-to-me%f0%9f%8e%82/

Ecstasy

ordinary is what defines extraordinary   festivals and feasts -happy breaks -being ecstatic to be savoured and remembered   we need to return at some point -not let it become an addiction -not let it become Ecstasy https://amanpan.com/2019/04/22/brewnspew-cafe-april-22-2019/
