11/08: We
"When we use the 'we' pronoun we place two people behind a joint action almost as if they form a composite being. Many languages have a special pronoun to use about two - and only two - people. This pronoun is called dual, or something that is shared by two... When this pronoun suddenly make its appearance, fairytale rules come into play, as if with the wave of a wand... 'We'll go for a walk!' It's so simple, Georg, just five words, and yet they describe a chain of events so pregnant with meaning that they go deep into the lives of two people on earth... 'We'll shower' Veronika said. 'We'll eat!' 'We'll go to bed!' You don't need more than one shower-head when the form is used. You don't need more than one kitchen and one bed."~ The Orange Girl - Jostein Gaarder

03/08: Bed of roses
I want to lay you down on a bed of roses,see the thorns pierce your skin smoothly,
enjoy the sight of growing red speckles,
beautiful contrast against the ivory canvas.
