remembering the plot
“don’t pointless things have a place, too…”
If busyness is all there is, then where are we supposed to assign time to the ‘living’ part of life?
the social media paradox
The lurking fear of being incorrect
When we think of the word ‘question’, we don’t usually think ‘stupid’, right? We may instead think ‘curious’ or ‘answer’. It’s by assuming and getting things wrong that can eventually lead us to the right answers. Why don’t we acknowledge this enough?
an endless curiosity
Go around, explore, see, feel, and embody life ;) Article on why you should embrace exploring. “Even if we deprive ourselves from acting out of curiosity, curiosity will always be there, and no, exploring and curiosity are not confined to just travelling.”

My new found love for cinema and rekindled affection for chess ;) Basically how I spent my thanksgiving break…

a step
The only thing we really know about choice is that it has an outcome.
Freedom
No, this is not a persuasive essay to get you to snowboard, (maybe skydive ;) Do we limit happiness? Do we know what it is?
Are the people in Antarctica upside down?!
Yes, because they literally are at the bottom of the earth (his point); no, because gravity pulls them down (both agreed). But, we were in California at the time, so Antarctica technically was not upside down, not from us (my view)! - Who do you think won this?!
The relief of art
A really good song, and I mean lyric-wise, is art. There’s a nostalgia that attaches itself to such a piece, that sort of familiarity with what is unfamiliar — Evidence the artist’s message was successfully conveyed - the artist’s job is done.
Cultural Materialism: a sustainability issue.
