She Loves My Testicle

Sparks of wisdom

"He pulls out another notebook, pick another pen, and write, write, write.
the center of the world, just make one positive step. In the middle of chaos, you just need one final action .

Writing and nothing else. Of 'yes, still alive, be awake. Write a full stop. Write. Write.

After all, perfection does not exist. If you want to write, you have to cut it short and write. There are no perfect atmosphere, perfect notebooks, pens or desks perfect. So you have to train to be flexible .

Natalie Goldberg, Writing zen , Ubaldini Editore, Rome, 1987

Dall'haiku the keitai. When Zen meets the keypad of a mobile phone

There was once a ' haiku. Once upon a time in Japan. There is now a keyboard of a mobile phone. There is a dislpay on which they appear bright, short words. There is now in Japan.

There was once a "give a speech in which the light is glimpsed something before it disappears from the mind" (Matsuo Basho), there are now "often made of short sentences, descriptions pared to the bone, a language that is born more by emotion and poetry everyday literature "(Alberto Castelvecchi ).

Evolution, writing that turns on the wave of technological changes in society. But sometimes I think that the past returns in Our present without being too obvious. Is there much difference between a haiku and keitai? Or is it only the soul of a people that despite everything remains true to itself?

Haiku. An ancient poem consists of only 17 syllables. Short, minimalist, zen. A Japanese carpe diem, a "here and now" that traps emotions in a few swift strokes. Clean and modern Japan was born in the mid seventeenth century.

Keitai . In Japan, always the desire to express a few words in a private world, emotions run away fast. The keitai is the literature of the third millennium, the novel mobile. He, too short, minimalist, zen. Written directly on the phone keypad, is a story in episodes made to be viewed on the display of a mobile phone, "Dead Poets Society made up of dots of light that can overcome the immense loneliness of the boys." For now, only a Japanese phenomenon. For now.
