20:32: A still and cool evening after a too hot day in buses, underground trains, public buildings and meeting people. Noisy and unpleasant in the heat - and with the range of thought and conversation far narrower and less interesting than here alone with sky, trees and near silence and no one within talking distance.

And now a question: is it possible (in reality or in fiction) to enjoy company and conversation that is not narrower but wider than these thoughts and notes in solitude in natural surroundings? That would be something.

That is my new aim. To compose such. The fiction of life as I'd like to live it!

Having written that he let go of human nature and of the first person.
