Carlos Castán

“...Getting to know one another started out as something ecstatic and life affirming. There were not enough days in the week to see through all the plans we hatched, or hours in the night to list them. Such affinities are above all else a matter of focus, a way of looking at the world; all of a sudden you find someone who not only places the source of light in the exact same direction as you, they also train it in precisely the direction you were looking. Many people decide to take their leave from the world one way or another, but it is not often that two people do so at the same time and through the same door, seeing everything then on from a very distant, identical angle. When such a coincidence does arise, it's possible to scorn and admire in union all that the world around us sets before our eyes, and to laugh at things, above all things held semi-sacred by the rest of humanity...”
