I'm that person
Reading a great blog this evening and found a treasure, The Happiness Project, and the creator, Gretchen Rubin, talks about how picking up someone else’s trash makes her feel good.
The other day, though, I was in the subway, where an empty Snapple bottle was rolling around to the great annoyance of everyone in the car. The bottle rolled back and forth, back and forth, and I thought,...

Natalie Kucken plays beautifully with typography. →
Everything about this girl’s work inspires me to do great things with my creativity. It’s enlivening—it’s like a magical journey, and everything I’m observing is what I know to be beautiful.
Also, don’t forget to savor her stop motion creations. Lap up the creative angel’s good work.

– I don’t even know what to write here anymore. I have twitter and facebook, and most times I don’t even know if I should write a thought to one or the other.
I think it’s time to start prioritizing. I have this blog but I didn’t intend for it to be a dead horse, or a...

minimalmac:
Earlier this week we wrote about an experimental new homepage that Google has been rolling out to a small subset of users that takes the search giant’s obsession with minimalism to the extreme. The page features exactly two elements: Google’s famous logo, and its search box. That is, until you move your mouse, when a nifty fade effect reveals with rest of Google’s standard...

Silent Roars
In the end I seek to feel That which was, was not so real. I hope to know a little more, A path that strays, another door.
No morbid flow will permeate The life that only I create. I will not feel one regret, Nor will I choose to forget.
Passion turns to silent roars, My face will fade, as will yours. You will find another one… Our lives once more have begun.

I Want to Be Dr. Frankenstein
I want a life full of many happy moments. Mostly I have that, but there’s always more to discover and play out. Like meeting and kissing Zachary Quinto, just once, because it would fulfill a fleeting fantasy and make me happy for a moment. At least it makes me happy in my mind and that counts for something.
But in reality, I really want a happy life. I want to make good money, just enough to live...
