This song still resonates with me now, and made a big impact on my eighteen year old mind when it first was released. Subliminally, it changed the course of my life and my way of thinking.
Fast Car
Tracy Chapman ‧ 1988
You got a fast car
I want a ticket to anywhere
Maybe we make a deal
Maybe together we can get somewhere
Any place is better
Starting from zero got nothing to lose
Maybe we'll make something
Me, myself, I got nothing to prove
You got a fast car
I got a plan to get us outta here
I been working at the convenience store
Managed to save just a little bit of money
Won't have to drive too far
Just 'cross the border and into the city
You and I can both get jobs
And finally see what it means to be living
See, my old man's got a problem
He live with the bottle, that's the way it is
He says his body's too old for working
His body's too young to look like his
My mama went off and left him
She wanted more from life than he could give
I said somebody's got to take care of him
So I quit school and that's what I did
You got a fast car
Is it fast enough so we can fly away?
We gotta make a decision
Leave tonight or live and die this way
So I remember when we were driving, driving in your car
Speed so fast it felt like I was drunk
City lights lay out before us
And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder
And I-I had a feeling that I belonged
I-I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone
You got a fast car
We go cruising, entertain ourselves
You still ain't got a job
And I work in the market as a checkout girl
I know things will get better
You'll find work and I'll get promoted
We'll move out of the shelter
Buy a bigger house and live in the suburbs
So I remember when we were driving, driving in your car
Speed so fast it felt like I was drunk
City lights lay out before us
And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder
And I-I had a feeling that I belonged
I-I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone
You got a fast car
I got a job that pays all our bills
You stay out drinking late at the bar
See more of your friends than you do of your kids
I'd always hoped for better
Thought maybe together you and me'd find it
I got no plans, I ain't going nowhere
Take your fast car and keep on driving
So I remember when we were driving, driving in your car
Speed so fast it felt like I was drunk
City lights lay out before us
And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder
And I-I had a feeling that I belonged
I-I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone
You got a fast car
Is it fast enough so you can fly away?
You gotta make a decision
Leave tonight or live and die this way

"The Baleful Head" 1885
Edward Burne Jones (1833-1898)
The last painting in this series is the baleful head which shows Perseus and Andromeda clenching into each other's right hand at the wrist on an octagon-shaped well.
In this piece of art, Perseus shows Andromeda Medusa's head which according to ancient mythology, it could not be gazed directly in its face because one would turn into stone.
For this reason, Perseus, who is in a bid to persuade Andromeda that he is the son of Zeus and claim her hand in marriage, carefully ensuring that she is looking at the reflection of medusa’s head in the water.

🏰Schloss Tarasp.
Tarasp Castle in Switzerland was built in the 11th century or even earlier and initially was just a ring wall protecting a chapel and a bell tower that also served as a watch tower. A large palace was built some 200 years later.
The castle had long been the only Austrian castle in Switzerland, actually until the early 19th century when it was seized and taken to the Helvetic Republic and later on to the Canton of Graubünden – this is when its decline began.
Actually some 200 years prior to this the castle survived two major blazes – the first one when local Protestants set it on fire and the second one when it was struck by a bolt of lightning.
Restoration works were completed early in the 20th century by a private owner who died suddenly and failed to reside in the castles.
His heir turned into a museum. In 2016 world famous multitalented multidisciplinary artist Not Vital bought it for some 7.9mn Swiss francs.
