Something to think about on this rainy day:
Art enables us to find ourselves and lose ourselves at the same time.-Thomas Merton
Art projects I feel like doing right now:
- Pick out some perfect felt-tip pens and doodle and draw on card stock. Maybe a birthday card for a friend.
- Cook a vegetarian dish I’ve never made before. (This counts as art.)
- Write a poem.
- Make pottery. Get my hands messy. Shape the clay into bizarre shapes.
You?

Excellent. Will unplug and do after work. =)
in the film Deliverance
Burt Reynolds drives fast and loose on the country roads
looking for a place he has never been and does not know where it is
at that point he says…
sometimes you have to lose yourself to find yourself
or something to that effect
oh me?
I could find myself if I could dig myself out of the mess in my basement and garage
which would be very cathartic
