I just came back from a literary evening that blew my mind – so many intelligent people with such knowledge about literature – as well as good poems on profound subjects.  The problem is that we were all old.  They were talking about old literature and and literary history and their literature all was linked into a tradition.  One of the participants has a weekly show that includes participants with music and stories from all ethnic backgrounds.  we always watch it.  I told him about how much I enjoy that he brings all cultures together and he said “write about it” and I realized that he too reads my diary.  And that he knows that I too find it very important to reveal the similarities of cultures.
