I have been infrequent in updating this blog so I am going to give you an empty promise and start updating more.
Why…good questions, how many people even read this?

![UT 3, 4 & The Milky Way [video]](http://static.flickr.com/2633/4135738280_d16c9dd389_t.jpg "UT 3, 4 & The Milky Way [video]")
R. M. Rilke
Who, if I cried out, would hear me among the angels'
hierarchies? and even if one of them suddenly
pressed me against his heart, I would perish
in the embrace of his stronger existence.
For beauty is nothing but the beginning of terror
which we are barely able to endure and are awed
because it serenely disdains to annihilate us.
Each single angel is terrifying.
And so I force myself, swallow and hold back
the surging call of my dark sobbing.
Oh, to whom can we turn for help?
Not angels, not humans;
and even the knowing animals are aware that we feel
little secure and at home in our interpreted world.

you can just look at the blog stats in wordpress to see how many people see this — it’ll be at least 1.
