7. And every fair from fair sometime declines,
7. All beautiful things (every fair) occasionally become inferior in comparison with their essential previous state of beauty (from fair). They all decline from perfection.
-
The seventh line of “Shall I Compare thee to a Summer’s Day?” marks a shift in William Shakespeare’s theme, of comparing the sonnet’s subject to a far less adequate summer’s day, towards the underlying and arguably main premise of the fading of youth’s beauty, the natural course of decay, and death being usurped by literature and poetry. Shakespeare’s seventh and eight lines, “And every fair from fair sometime declines, / By chance, or nature's changing course untrimmed;” (7-8), describes how “fairness” or beauty fades away by chance happenings or mortality’s helplessness against the ravages of time. Shakespeare’s “Summer’s Day” as well as all beautiful, youthful things in nature eventually succumb to age and death. Shakespeare’s subject, too, is victim to these forces and much like the summer’s day, they too will grow old and die.
-
William Shakespeare’s sonnet “Shall I Compare Thee to a Summer’s Day” concludes with the fateful couplet, “So long as men can breathe or eyes can see, / So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.” (13-14); essentially stating that so long as men live and have the eyes to read Shakespeare’s sonnet, men will know of his subjects beauty and this poem will be the key to their immortality. In literature, Shakespeare decrees, we defeat death and our natural mortality to become metaphysical creatures of the written word; our memories living on throughout time to exist deathlessly in a state of literary grace.
-
Shakespeare appears to believe that immortality is found in the writings of scribes, artists, and poets who document their subjects, in whatever medium they so work, to have their art survive throughout the ages and be incorporated through generation after generation of readerships to far outlive their creators indefinitely, or perhaps even infinitely. Through words, Shakespeare would agree, death is defeated and immortality is discovered.

Christmas all over
In with the new.
Christmas rush, festive mood at OG, 1 dollar ice creams, temple, Terminal 2 for dinner, finally ate my wanton noodles and bought some dim sum. I'm starting to appreciate local dishes especially wanton dimsum chicken rice meepok duckrice you name it. Call me Auntie/typical Singaporean but I really don't care cause Kopitiam food's getting really tasty these days..
Not to mention Candy Empire, which was still as awesome.
Lots of chocolates + Cadbury + marshmellows + cup noodles + Starburst gummies + salt and vinegar chips + alot more.
Christmas really was awesome.
Before I forget,
This morning I found out that my passport is expiring in..a week?
It got me so worried cause I'm going overseas and I definitely didn't want to be kept in the immigration service thingy cause of an expired passport.
So, I prayed. Hard.
And turns out, I could still travel overseas.
What a relief I tell you.
:)
Dedications will be posted when it's New Year's Eve/New Year
Once again, Merry Xmas everyonez.
