“No matter how careful you are, there’s going to be the sense you missed something, the collapsed feeling under your skin that you didn’t experience it all. There’s that fallen heart feeling that you rushed right through the moments where you should have been paying attention. Well get used to that feeling. That’s how your whole life will feel like someday.”
Absolutely wonderful short film about artist Maira Kalman, patron saint of the moments inside the moments inside the moments.
A poetic homage to holometabolism, the process by which a caterpillar metamorphoses into a butterfly, part of biologist Joanna Tilsley’s wonderful “quantum poetry” series celebrating science.
"Dream good… Stay glad… Keep hoping machine running."
Happy birthday, Woody Guthrie! Celebrate with his enormously endearing 1942 New Year’s Resolution list.
"Keep hoping machine running."
“It is something—it can be everything—to have found fellow bird with whom you can sit among the rafters while the drinking and boasting and reciting and fighting go on below; a fellow bird whom you can look after and find bugs and seeds for; one who will patch your bruises and straighten your ruffled feathers and mourn over your hurts when you accidentally fly into something you can’t handle.”

WordPlay, a new series of Moo notecards and minicards by visual storyteller Debbie Millman, based on her fantastic visual essay collections Self-Portrait as Your Traitor (one of the best art books of 2013) and Look Both Ways.
The series benefits the Joyful Heart Foundation, a nonprofit working to end domestic violence, sexual abuse, and child abuse.
Exquisite.
“I can feel the irrationality and anxiety draining my store of energy like a battery-operated racecar grinding away in the corner. This is the energy I will need to get through the next day. But I just lie in bed and watch it burn, and with it any hope for a productive tomorrow. There go the dishes, there goes the grocery store, there goes exercise, there goes bringing in the garbage cans. There goes basic human kindness.”
“There is a sacredness in tears. They are not the mark of weakness, but of power. They speak more eloquently than ten thousand tongues. They are the messengers of overwhelming grief, of deep contrition, and of unspeakable love.”
“They are scattering you tonight or tomorrow
And I am with you every breath of the way
I hope there is a brisk wind that will take you far and wide
Everyone in the world wanted a piece of you
Now you can accommodate them all
Land lightly on their greedy brows
Or blur their eyes with your gritty essence
Or if we could conjure up a gale
You could choke them all to death”
The Day You Died. Alla
