Tucked into a forgotten & quiet corner booth with a mug of tea in the noisiest pub in the world. Likes to look at art. (a.k.a. @streamgazer, once upon a time.)
finding beauty in everything is sometimes an act of survival
On paper it is gorgeous. Two toothbrushes in one cup. Tiny socks on the radiator. Someone whose face you know in the dark reaching for you at 3:12 and not leaving. A small person with your eyes and their laugh eating cereal too slowly before school. It sounds like the closest…
i genuinely do not understand how so many people are missing the inherent desire to find a spouse and have children. how is that not the most beautiful thing you could have? someone to love you forever and make mini-mes with? how have we strayed so far?
Practically speaking, a life that is vowed to simplicity, appropriate boldness, good humor, gratitude, unstinting work and play, and lots of walking brings us close to the actual existing world and its wholeness. - Gary Snyder

“Someday, you say, you’ll be glass in a window / that looks across a landscape of wilderness” — Michael Hettich

“Mere literacy won’t do anymore. The task of community education ought to be to lift the entire community up to the level of the technology it’s using. Otherwise the society collapses.” Marshall McLuhan ‘Electronics and the Psychic Dropout’ 1966

Tempus tacendi, et tempus loquendi — “There is a time to be silent, and a time to speak.”

Thank goodness for well-trained psychoanalysts
The most helpful thing for my sanity (aside from old-school psychodynamic psychotherapy) has been sitting down in a public place for a hot drink in a real ceramic cup without an electronic device for at least an hour, every other day
Mourning the fact that I missed these when they were released

Most people know of Christopher Alexander's "Pattern Language" or "Timeless Way of Building", but few know about his religious turn in "The Nature of Order", where he develops a Catholic-Shintoist metaphysics in which God lives in matter, and beauty is the act of revealing God:
You still are the child you once were. You didn't leave the child you once were by the wayside like an outdated automobile or grow out of yourself like a snake or a crab. What you loved, and how you loved is still there inside you and the more you connect the happier you will be.
Unfortunately this time around I cannot do a lot of following parent-posters. Hurts my heart too much
