“The art of a hunter is to become inaccessible,” he said. “In the case of that blond girl it would’ve meant that you had to become a hunter and meet her sparingly. Not the way you did. You stayed with her day after day, until the only feeling that remained was boredom. True?”
I did not answer. I felt I did not have to. He was right.
“To be inaccessible means that you touch the world around you sparingly. You don’t eat five quail; you eat one. You don’t damage the plants just to make a barbecue pit. You don’t expose yourself to the power of the wind unless it is mandatory. You don’t use and squeeze people until they have shriveled to nothing, especially the people you love.”

Chapter 1
I walk down the street and theres a deep hole in the sidewalk, I fall in, I am lost, I am helpless, It isnt my fault, It takes me forever to find my way out.
Chapter 2
I walk down the same street and theres a deep hole in the sidewalk, I pretend i dont see it. I fall in again, I can’t believe that I’m in the same place but it isn’t my fault. It takes a long time to find a way out.
Chapter 3
I walk down the same street and theres a deep hole in the sidewalk, I see that it is there, I still fall in, it’s a habit, My eyes are open, I know its my fault. I get out immediately
Chapter 4
I walk down the same street and theres a deep hole in the sidewalk, I walk around it.
Chapter 5
I walk down another street.
Autobiography by Porsche Nelson
love is a verb
and love
is an acceptance
of all things
love in action
is a reflection
of inner satisfaction
giving birth
to a gift
for another
with no
expectations
of getting
it back
planting a small
seed bares
large fruit
into the future
you may
never see the
same tree
but the forest
is all around you
open your
heart to the
world and the
world opens
its heart
to you
