but I, being poor, have only my dreams

You see, the problem comes when, by being poor, you've lost your dreams too.

tread softly, because you tread on my dreams.

then again, why would you spread you dreams under his feet?

蝴蝶

昔者莊周夢為蝴蝶,栩栩然蝴蝶也,自喻適志與,不知周也。俄然覺,則蘧蘧然周也。不知周之夢為蝴蝶與,蝴蝶之夢為周與?周與蝴蝶則必有分矣。此之謂物化。

Many are the criticisms that have been leveled at me, but they fall into three groups:

1. Bookish. A "bookish" person is one who prizes the power of the mind over the power of the flesh.
2. Frivolous. A "frivolous" person is one who prizes the beautiful over the useful.
3. Arrogant. An "arrogant" person is one who refuses to compromise his beliefs in deference to others.

Mika wrote in his column:
Resolution Number TWO; Be Kind Not Nice.
he goes as far as to compare being nice to being drunk too many times in a week. Enough said.

Mariposas amarillas Mauricio Babilonia
Mariposas amarillas que vuelan liberadas

Resolution Number FIVE; Work All The Time.

I don't believe he meant it in a (Animal Farm) Boxer kinda way:
"I will work harder"
which is why I liked it. Our generation wastes too much time being tired. I waste too much time being tired.

Resolution Number SIX; Be all you can't be. Enough said.

Mika went as far as Resolution Number FIVE.

And if you care about Mika's resolutions you can find them here.
