simple like ice-cream

Cannot help it. I need to brag.

Need to tell that I recently went to Katie Noonan and Tori Amos gig.

Such different performers, both eccentric, both profoundly moved me.

Watching them perform I seemed to twist and flutter.

They were so rich and passionate and I was so small in the room.


So good that I didnt spend the last half hour of the performance

wondering what the performers had for dinner.


So good that I left the theater buzzing,

wanting to think about it, talk about it, write about it.


Although as always, when I am overwhelmed by something,

I tend to shut down, shift into freestyle mode and

nothing gets done properly.


So envious of them, passionate people, in general.

Not so proud of admitting this, but Ive never considered myself

a person who is passionate or proactive.

I just like things. And really really really like things.

But I still dont know what I exactly love doing.

I give up on them easily.


It is a loaded word, passion.

I wish it was simple.

ditto.
 
yeah, it's always good to go to a gig and feel that you're getting a decent performance. For example, Craig David: Worst. Concert. Ever. Yet, John Mayer: one of the best accoustic gigs I've ever seen. Right now, I'm debating whether to go to Talib Kweli this Sunday...
