Yes, i have missed a few days. The weather has been very hot and honestly who wants to do work while itβs uncomfortably hot? But iβm back on track now!
Does anyone want to sit under a tree, protected from the sun, reading poetry to one another. Pointing out clouds that look like animals. Maybe we will stay there until the sunsets? Or maybe we wonβt.
βThere is always some madness in love. But there is also always some reason in madness.β

Maybe I am motivated to do things for the aesthetic but at least I know Oscar Wilde would support that

Itβs possible for you to read any book or type of book (or any media!) and benefit. But if those are the only books you read your thoughts become narrow and, possibly, dangerous. Thereβs nothing wrong with European classics, but if thatβs all you base your world view on your world view is terribly incomplete! And every book needs to be read critically, the ideas within it should be examined thoroughly before theyβre adopted and you should listen to opponents of it, too.
Doubtful that this will reach many people, but I just redid my blog theme and am not too happy with it. If anyone has any photos that you think might look good as my header/avatar or maybe a color palette pretty please submit them as a post and I might use them? My blog is in your handsβ¦
how am I supposed to live deliberately if I canβt even leave my house these days?
