Skyglow and faith

There are some nights when for whatever reason we can't see the stars from where we are, but that doesn't make us doubt whether or...

Like the moon

Like the moon
We each have a light side
And a dark side,
And we go through phases.


Thank you to the person who bought this. I really appreciate your support, and hope your nights are beautiful.

Maybe if I play the same song over and over again the sun won't set.

This is the assignment that never ends and I need the sun to never set pretty please 🙃

The kind of geometry that Floris Bosveld makes with the moves in every single dance is just something else idk how else to say it.

If perfect bullet journals were danging it would be Floris.
Can method actors lie better on histograms?

Does the conscious pre-assessment of a peron's appearance and attractiveness make people more inclined or less inclined to be biased with them? (The way mixed people were rated average in appearance, until people were first asked to categorize them by race, then we scored lower.)

Quarantine Activities

- See how my hair reacts to no conditioner these days
- Visiting the migratory birds around the lake, renew my sense of wonder in nature because school has killed me inside. I've done more to do with concrete in this environmental program than birds.
- Call the loons every day until they come (*gasp* I just remembered that my dream from the other night that I couldn't remember was about my loon friends)
- Talking a pet for a walk
- Watch and listen to old videos of waterfalls and plants moving in the breeze
- Check in with friends
- Have online group phone calls and sync up movies together
- Make poetry, paintings, and other types of art
- Lol jk I've been spending all my time doing homework
- And cooking and cleaning

My fear at the moment is not of dying, but of what I might live through.

Thank you, Dr. Li Wenliang

For personal reflection:

Dr. Li Wenliang was the brave Chinese doctor who first warned the world about COVID-19. Within a few days he was reprimanded by officials for causing fear.

Dr. Wenliang later contracted the virus and was killed by it in February. He was 34.

We all may do well to ask, “who am I most like in this situation?”

Let’s laugh about the toilet paper, but please do not mock people for taking prevention seriously.

Dreams of the Ocean and a Waterfall in Mongolia

Dreams last night:

That I travelled to the ocean, and to a waterfall in Mongolia.

The ocean heard me saying I don't want to get my socks wet, so it sent a flood to get them. Then I said "at least my shoes are dry" as I held them above the water, so it sent more. I held onto my shoes, but it took away my glasses on the picnic blanket.

The waterfall in Mongolia was more agreeable however, as were my group of travel companions.

"He is probably both the most thoughtful crazy person and crazy thoughtful person I know."

It is important to be kind even to people we don't know well, or don't like everythig about.

We hurt eachother in ways we can never ourselves repair.

I'll bet there is somebody who hurt you in the past and they couldn't fix it. But maybe I can, and we'll only every know if I at least try.
