Everything that ever happened is still happening. Past, present and future keep happening in the eternity which is Here and Now. ↗

I had a toy theater and a magic lantern, and when I was eight I built a stage for theatricals in the attic. ↗

I never wanted to dilute my private passion for the art by airing and arguing it in public. ↗

I often start writing in order to excite an expansive emotion. ↗
