Kafka OnThe Shore - Haruki Murakami

Since there is no denouement, Only quotes:

I'll just think about now.

...the most important job is surviving from one day to the next.

"The pure present is an ungraspable advance of the past devouring the future. In truth, all sensation is already memory" - Henri Bergson, Matter and Memory [Mame mo memelay].

...every object's in flux. The earth, time, concepts, love, life, faith, juice, evil - they're all fluid and in transition. They don't stay in one form or in one place forever. The whole universe is like some big FedEx box.

Just live each day as it came.

This is pretty obvious, but until things happen, they haven't happened.

In a place where time isn't important, neither is memory.

Every one of us is losing something precious to us.

I am at peace, content, moksha-esque, even - but I do need money for subsistence. Which reminds me , how do I monetize my writings? Time to fire up the Vaio. 
keep the mind occupied. working all the time, not letting it wander back to the sordid fact of having to face this place for a whole month. especially that fact. thirty days of...of...i don't know what and what's more, i don't WANT to know. i wish i had an escape from this.
