Life, what is it but a dream?by *moonmomma

Community Projects / Projects / dA Loving Day 2007 / Yellow Contest

©2007-2013 *moonmomma

Made for

yellow love story [link]

Chapter 12 in ‘Through the looking glass’ by Lewis Carroll
The final two lines are

Lingering in the golden gleam --
Life, what is it but a dream?

In Karemeloncholia’s Yellow love story I think I see many allusions to both ‘Through the looking glass’ and’ Alice in wonderland’

I chose to interpret the story with that in mind.

We all think that we would be better off somewhere else from time to time, the unfortunate amongst us make that an extremely final reality.

I give permission for all Mods in the DA Loving Day to use image for this event only.

Goodnight Enigmatic SongShe was the song you hear and, at first blush, don't like.
Well, you don't know how you feel about it so you keep listening in an attempt to discover how exactly you feel and then you reach the end of the song and you realize, you don't like it; you love it.
That was Grace.
She was my coworker and she was my friend.
We carpooled together, I drove and she slept most of the way.
"Don't get much sleep at night, do you?" I asked her, catching those drooping lids mid-descent.

She looked out the window streaked with rain; it spoke in percussive touches filling the car with quiet overcast conversation.
