return

i haven't blogged for AGES. So today i came back to this blog and typed 'Sviatoslav Richter' and 'piano' and 'music' in the search-box -- and gosh. i used to be an interesting person! i'd forgotten how i used to write about music, how intensely i listened to music. i'd forgotten, oddly enough, how much it used to figure in my life. Which doesn't really make sense, given that i've just published an essay on music that i'd written about two years ago after helping a friend select a second-hand piano for his sons...

i need to get back to blogging. Not journalling, but blogging. Because journals are generally shapeless rambling. Blog entries are shaped things. And because for me, the way it works is: i write, therefore i am. Writing proves my existence to me.
