Adolfo

Adolfo Best Maugard, by Diego Rivera, 1913.

Do you remember when we first met? I thought I had wandered into a dream.  J.R.R. Tolkien, The Lord of the Rings:The Fellowship of the Ring


¿Recuerdas cuándo nos conocimos? Pensé que había vagado en un sueño.




Saudade.

(n.) This untranslatable Portuguese term refers to the melancholic a deep, nostalgic, and  longing for something or someone, often accompanied with denied fact that what one longs for will never come back

“The Road Not Taken

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both 
And be one traveler, long I stood 
And looked down one as far as I could 
To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair, 
And having perhaps the better claim, 
Because it was grassy and wanted wear; 
Though as for that the passing there 
Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay 
In leaves no step had trodden black. 
Oh, I kept the first for another day! 
Yet knowing how way leads on to way, 
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh 
Somewhere ages and ages hence: 
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I— 
I took the one less traveled by, 
And that has made all the difference.”
