"Hello, whoever you are. Come travel with me, traveling with me you find never tires, the earth never tires.

The earth is rude silent, and incomprehensible at first, nature is rude and incomprehensible at first.

Be not discouraged, keep on, there are divine things well enveloped… I feel pretty, oh so pretty..."

HE IS TELLING ME THESE WORDS AS WE ARE SITTING ON AN ISLAND IN THE MIDDLE OF THE BOSPORUS:

“Here I WANT TO LIVE and love, ALONE AND WITH EVERYBODY.

THIS ISLAND is to become a HOUSE and a LIGHTHOUSE, a villa and an island, a HOME and a CENOTAPH. 

I would like it to be a CENOTAPH FOR THE LAST REASONABLE THOUGHT.

don’t ask me why, talk with me? Let’s figure it out.”  

IT IS DRAMATIC, HE IS NOT SURE WHAT IT MEANS, BUT HE IS SMILING AND DANCING, LIKE A HARLEQUIN IN A THEATER. 

I am staying and going ON AN ADVENTURE WITH HIM :)
