Now, Remember this Moment


“Make a list. Cross it off. Build a fort. Read a magazine. Turn off the tv. Make some coffee. Smell the flowers. Take a day off. Take two days off. Take a week off. Go outside. Buy a plane ticket. Leave the country. Fall in love. Wear something new. Wear nothing. Camp a mountain. Swim with the fish. Paint a picture. Paint yourself. Listen to new music. Listen to old music. Play music. Take a walk. Make a new friend. Reconnect with old friends. Write people letters. Send the letters. Tell the truth. Grow your own fruit. Look at the stars. Breathe in. Breathe out.


Now, remember this moment.”

Sonar by Renaud Hallée


I stumbled across this video at vimeo and was blown away.
I love see the stats and how a video just blows up like that. Very soothing animation.

Faye Wong - Beautiful Mistake


The song tells to enjoy loving the past/present/future, because as the lyrics say "at least then I would have had a moment of happiness".

(thanks sweetheart, I did have
a moment of happiness)




Here's the translation of this beautiful song:

Originally planned to vow by the ocean with him,
Yet mistakenly arrived to a swimming pool
Eyes filled with the ocean-blue beauty, That is where you and I began, The blue ripples laid forth a path of memories

You gave me a meteoroid rarely descending from above,
I continued to mistake it for a perfect diamond,
Never once seeing its defect, Mounting it onto my ring,
I did not even realize, What was there I had lost

Allow me to have sensibility get the better of me,

Leaving sense to no avail, At least then I would have had a moment of happiness

Who cares if you are real or fake, or whoever is my destination,
The ability of self-righteousness is nevertheless a blessing

It always happens either too early, or too late

A beautiful mistake often comes so close to the truth

Although sometimes I wake up from dreams, and sometimes I don't hold out

The greatest happiness in life is nothing more than this
The so-called dream life
Means precisely this
The so-called fate means this
