Mark Harfield
Hello friends and strangers, posting musings of madness live and direct from the deeper recesses of the void inside my head, as often as the feeling strikes. Along with the occassional pretty photo just to keep the illusion that I really am a nice boy. I read this today, made me think - “If you want to know your past – look into your present conditions. If you want to know your future – look into your present actions.” I also read this - “Give me six hours to chop down a tree and I will spend the first four sharpening the axe.” the latter quote was supposedly penned by Abraham Lincoln, I wish I was so wise, usually I spend the first 5 and a half hours with a blunt knife... nothing like a deadline

Memoirs of a Geisha, she paints her face to hide her face

She paints her face to hide her face. Her eyes are deep water. It is not for Geisha to want. It is not for geisha to feel. Geisha is an artist of the floating world. She dances, she sings. She entertains you, whatever you want. The rest is shadows, the rest is secret.
