On gentleness (David Gordon Green's All the Real Girls, 2003)


But I, being poor, have only my dreams;
I have spread my dreams under your feet;
Tread softly because you tread upon my dreams.
W. B. Yeats


I must admit, I had huge dilemmas about what to choose as the topic for my first post. News? Not revealing enough – how could anyone tell what this blog is to be about, if all it gave to its first readers was a bunch of info they could read anywhere? Best-of lists? Yeah, those seem to be rather popular recently, with everyone seemingly believing that 2010 actually IS the first year of a new decade. But unfortunately, I don’t like lists much – I get so much competition and need to order things by preference in real life that I am trying my best to avoid it when it comes to all things I find beautiful. For rankings, in short, I don’t really care much. But what do I care for?

Emotions.
