There’s totally nothing wrong with writing about titbits which do not necessarily have context. Sometimes, the background is best left blurred, like a macro photograph. 

I’m bored. Haven’t done any work ALL DAY. And I do not have this desirable commodity named time to begin with, so there is much self reproach, stress and sleepless nights waiting patiently around the corner for me. 

In more cheerful news, www.etsy.com has some beautiful things!

"If we let ourselves, we shall always be waiting for some distraction or other to end before we can really get down to our work. The only people who achieve much are those who want knowledge so badly that they seek it while the conditions are still unfavorable. Favorable conditions never come."

- C.S. Lewis (via psychotherapy) (via quote-book)

Watched a toddler climb a steep-ish grassy slope today. Looking up at the mother waiting for him at the top, initially with bold carefree steps, then more hesitant as the slope became steeper. Went too fast, did an awkward sideways cartwheel and face-planted. Sat there for a little bit, looking up. Got up and continued with caution. Towards the top he started crawling because it was so steep.

He made it.

Life doesn’t change much from 2 to 22. And chances are I will feel the same way at 33. Gives me hope.

"One aspect is purely selfish. I’m curious. Every time we discover something there is a tremendous sense of achievement and satisfaction. I like the discovery process itself."
