O Dine! the colour of the eyes of a jealous lover


The rocket leaves were wildly bitter; the avocado, buttery, unripe, warmly bitter; the lime juice, sour, parfumé by the hint of zesty rind, teasefully bitter.

A Toss of bitter Greens - the Eyes of a jealous Lover; a Toast to Life!

The Point of No Return

As a plane is accelerating for takeoff, it reaches a pivotal point in its ever increasing speed, known as the decision speed. This is the point where, once past, it becomes impossible for the plane to abort takeoff. It will simply have to fly off and then do a landing procedure if it were to touch ground again... either that or a crash landing.

Similarly, when you start falling for someone, you very quickly reach a pivotal point, where once you pass, it will be impossible for you to escape falling all the way through.


L'amour ne s'explique pas !
C'est une chose comme ça
Qui vient on ne sait d'où
Et vous prend tout à coup.


- Michel Emer 1962 -
