Lemon&Sugar How can you ever pinpoint a moment? A particular impact that takes your breathe away. Something that appears to define your very existential purpose. A moment creates the facets that exist within the angles of our beings. Why are you the way you are and does any part of you matter? No one is to say, because no one can ever know. Yet, everyone understands the impacts that these moments can make on your life. It’s an unspoken language. All the ordinary moments that changed a life forever. A feeling that cannot be described. Coexistence is meant to intertwine our consciousness of our constant state of being alive, whether or not their is reason to be found or happiness to be shared. In what moment do we learn to let the concrete of the cities we live in form our opinion of the world that we are merely specks of? We must suffer to know the good. And trust becomes dim with pretty arguments. And who am I to wonder? Who am I to provoke the disturbing thought that nobody really knows or understands? That as we build walls of the familiar we shut out the possibility of the unknown. What does your gut say and does it matter? Chaos exists within the opaque dimensions through which we can not make out the fine lines. And that is terrifying. And the clock keeps ticking. And we keep trying to define what is without ever really knowing if anything is true. It’s all a waiting game, but no one knows what they’re waiting for.

I think it was that day—the day of the photograph, or another very much like it, sitting by the edge of the rough Atlantic, perhaps after a swig of rough red table wine—that I first heard him make that statement: “I am a man of simple needs.” An expression of genuine satisfaction with the moment. It left an impression. I remember those words every time I find myself made ridiculously happy by a bowl of noodles eaten while sitting on a low plastic stool, sucking up the smell of burning joss sticks and distant wafts of durian, the sight of Vietnamese families on their motorbikes around me.I feel myself moving like him. I feel his face in mine when I pick up my daughter. I hear his voice in mine when I say something silly, make myself ridiculous for her entertainment. When we eat together, I can’t help but try, like my father, to portray what we eat as potentially awesome or funny—as “marvelous.”
