| | |
| riding bikes through fort mason, crissy fields, and golden gate bridge. machiattos and baguette sandwich with mozzarella, basil pesto, and tomatos at the warming hut. a pink sunset casting a warm glow over the city. aloe blacc's green light sounds the way i feel- theme song of the weekend.
one of the most beautiful days i've had in the city. | | |
| "go with your gut," says my therapist.
what does that even mean?
i've ignored it for so long that i can no longer hear nor recognize its voice.
this year will be about listening to my gut, following my heart, and living authentically. | | |
| live with intention.
play with abandon.
do what you love.

| "TO BE HOPEFUL in bad times is not just foolishly romantic. It is based on the fact that human history is a history not only of cruelty, but also of compassion, sacrifice, courage, kindness. What we choose to emphasize in this complex history will determine our lives. If we see only the worst, it destroys our capacity to do something. If we remember those times and places—and there are so many—where people have behaved magnificently, this gives us the energy to act, and at least the possibility of sending this spinning top of a world in a different direction. And if we do act, in however small a way, we don’t have to wait for some grand utopian future. The future is an infinite succession of presents, and to live now as we think human beings should live, in defiance of all that is bad around us, is itself a marvelous victory."
