Let the world churn in its tides of normalcy, drown in blind following, grow in tied steps.
I shall be over here listening to classical music.
The Arts Festival is still running, so I'm gorging myself on culture and adoring every minute of it.
No wandering intellectual stagnation in the moments of these events. No questioning, wondering, pondering what lack of depth one has to have accepted in order to maintain a life on this frequency. None of this, only happiness, fulfillment, joy in the knowledge that these few moments that make up my life have not been wasted on the inanity that society tries- and succeeds- in persuading us is acceptable.
In reality, we are glorious, we are brilliant, we are geniuses.
We are human.
Once we break free of the cloud we shall see.
This week saw In-i, Alice in Wonderland, Agnes of God, and a brilliant night at the comedy club pass through my reality.
I must say that the most brilliant show of the lot was Agnes of God, by the HK Theater Association.
Dark, disturbing and intelligent, I was truly impressed not only by the play itself but by the caliber of the performance delivered by this Hong Kong company, and I highly recommend seeing them.
Coming up on my cultural agenda is Carmen, Princess Changping, Coldplay, Swan Lake, Hamlet, and Cats.
My cultural mailing list is growing. Hope to see you guys at some of these events!
I always aim for the Friday showing.
