I wanted all things to make sense,
So we'd be happy instead of tense.

A commonplace book: an old-fashioned literary diary for recording interesting items from reading you've done. I use mine to record snippets from reading, conversation and life in general. (The early 2003 entries are from a period some years ago -- before the blog age -- when I tried an online commonplace book as a straight web page.)

I resist what I cannot change
Own it in your own way
I wanna find what can't be found
