"Opportunities pass us by while we sit regretting the chances we have lost, & the happiness that comes to us we heed not because of the happiness that is gone."
"Tis time this heart should be unmoved, since others it hath ceased to move, yet though I cannot be loved, still let me love."
...and thus I rest my case. Me encanta su manera de pensar... y sentir.
I've been in Cuernavaca for a few days, visiting amigos and such. A friend brought mariachi over for Nai's birthday celebration and we ended up singing till about 4 am, didn't think I knew that many rancheras.
I also got to see some good friends; Paz, Joy and Cel... hey; I even made a new one! He came all the way from Lithuania and I think he was rather pleased with the cultural experience.
So the velada turned out to be a lot of fun and I even danced a little when I could no longer sing, well I never could sing to begin with, but you know what I mean.
And for the record; I can't remember the last time I was this happy to get a one liner. :)
I had a really good time yesterday, hadn't gotten away for a while.
I couldn't help but think of what life and civilization must have been like back when it was a prosperous city; when life was still conducted at a pace where one would take the time to actually appreciate the beauty allaround us.
I am sitting atop the "Pyramid of the Sun" in the first two pictures, facing the Pyramid of the Moon.
Amber and I halfway up the Moon Pyramid, behind us lies the "Avenue of the Dead" and the large pyramid on the left is the "Pyramid of the Sun".
I have to thank her really for making me take her out there, as I would have probably never have gone of my own accord. Gracias Amber.
