To whom are you speaking? To Yassin? He wasn't deaf. He became deaf. He doesn't realise this. He's surprised that nothing makes a sound anymore... Just imagine. You are a child, Yassin... It would be idiotic to try and tell you it was deafness. You don't hear, you don't understand. You don't think it's you who can't hear. People have lost their voices; stones have lost their sound. The world is silent. So then, why are people moving their mouths?

Let the deaf listen to the mute.
A soul is needed to understand them both.
Without listening we understood.
Without understanding we carried it out.
On this Way, the seeker's wealth is poverty.
We loved, we became lovers.
We were loved,. we became the beloved.
When all is perishing moment by moment
Whos has time to be bored?
God divided His people into Seventy-two languages and borders arose.
But poor Yunus fills the earth and sky,
and under every stone hides a Moses.
- Yunus Emre

Yunus was always dreamy Ro :) About Haloscan, just go to www.haloscan.com and register yourself. Its a very simple procedure. An additional advantage for Blogger users is the autoactivate feature, whereby the code is directly placed into ur template and you don't have to do any tedious cut-copy-paste stuff. Once the commenting is enabled, you can go to the template gallery and pick a look for the comments window. I read thru the stuff about trackback, but still have no idea what to do with it :). Keep writing.
