This is a oddly formed book, like a painting with haphazard colors or a collage. Whether the essays and shorter pieces of writing construct a narrative is up to the reader to discern or better interpret. At the very least, some of the colours (read: written work) may just touch a nerve. The general idea is that since we all think one thought here and one there and every so often a sequence of supporting thoughts which we call one´s story or even an idea, so this collection of ideas simply reflects the alternating patterns of the heart and mind as one negotiates what we call reality. It is hoped that the reader may even find sparks - hints of colours and gestures - that are inspirational and even practically applicable as an attitude towards life.
