books, music, chocolate, poetry, solitude......

..... bare necessities to the good life.

Books the kind you lose yourself into, the ones that transport you to a place you knew existed but just couldn't quite get to, the ones that take you away with the promise of bringing you back a transformed person, sort of books that touch your soul, the ones that make you stop at a sentence take a deep breath and wonder how another can feel exactly how you feel.Books that connect you to another human soul. That make you feel a little less lonely.

Music like the harmony of the spheres. Music that evokes nostalgia, a sweet remembrance of things past. One that evokes the lost times, notes that search for eternity. I want music that brings me to places Iv been before, or I think Iv been before and promises to take me to ones Iv never been.

Chocolate that is sweet but not too sweet, just perfect. The ones that stays in your mouth and diffuses its flavor slowly. The ones that are creamy, almondy, nutty, salty mmmmmmmm.

Poetry that speaks to your heart, that says what you always wanted to say in those same very words but just didn't know how. poetry that makes life beautiful. Poetry that makes you ponder, think, and wonder.

Solitude that is quite, soft and not harsh, solitude of contentment, of being aware of being alone and enjoying it.
