"Well, when I get those 'mean reds' the only thing that does any good is to jump in a cab and go to Tiffany's. Calms me down right away. The quietness and the proud look of it; nothing very bad could happen to you there. If I could find a real-life place that'd make me feel like Tiffany's....oh what I could do" Holly GoLightly

I dreamed a better version of myself
I dreamed a better version of myself.
Today, I remembered the dream.
Tomorrow, I begin the revision to todays rough draft.
The day after tomorrow, I will revise again.
An eraser will not be used, but a red pen, gently slashing through what I was, so that I can see.
The day after that, begins the new revision of the day before.
I don't know when the final copy will be published. It is in the writing, and revising, that I live.
I'll make notes on the side of each paragraph, reminding me that things could be added, here and there.
But no erasing.
I dreamed a better version of myself.
Tiffany
I share a birthday with Vincent Van Gogh, who once said:
"I dream my paintings, then I paint my dreams"
That's what I'm doing my friend.
