“Creative work needs solitude. It needs concentration, without interruptions. It needs the whole sky to fly in, and no eye watching until it comes to that certainty which it aspires to, but does not necessarily have at once. Privacy, then."

The word wabi (侘び) does not lend itself readily to translation, for it can mean a number of things: loneliness, desolation,rustic simplicity,quiet taste, a gentle affection for antique, unostentatious, and rather melancholy refinement.

You may not be interested in politics, but politics is interested and you. And if you ignore, it will control your life.

Today, our new ministry was sworn in to keep serving the Australian people.
No one held back and no one left behind. That’s the future we’re building, together.

Getting sick of seeing police cars daubed in anti-ALP political messages. How does that fit with either their social licence or statutory obligations? One car today: 'Make Vicpol Great again'. Next to a note on 'crime rates under ALP' ... I thought they were public servants?

Not all grapes are suitable for wine making e.g. table grapes (vitis vinifera) which these look like. But the Japanese have mastered cultivating the most extraordinary delicious fruits in every sense:taste, texture, colour, smell, size. A (one) perfect Bijin-hime strawberry can cost around US$320,00
