“My soul is full of longing
for the secret of the sea,
and the heart of the great ocean
sends a thrilling pulse through me.”
― Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Heading to Nova Scotia tomorrow! Traveling the breadth of Canada. Absolutely bonkers over the thought of exploring this beautiful landscape. Have a great weekend and I’ll catch you on the other side :).

Interesting questions to ponder:

1. What is the most important measure of human progress?
2. What does it mean to live a fulfilled life?
3. Who or what inspires you?
4. How did you become the creative person you are today?

My responses?

1. The most important measure of human progress is empathy. A piece on measuring empathy here.
2. Living a fulfilled life means having an intimate understanding of what makes your heart tango and the courage to dance (often solo).
3. I’m inspired by failure, rejection, heartbreak, and those that overcome adversity.
4. My creativity emanates from engaging in activities that challenge and stimulate my noodle.

I’m good with another day to celebrate. Go Vi!

“There is a pleasure in the pathless woods,
There is a rapture on the lonely shore,
There is society, where none intrudes,
By the deep sea, and music in its roar:
I love not man the less, but Nature more”
― George Gordon Byron

Yes! I love Nature more. Have a wonderful weekend folks!

Ontological design. What we design in turn designs us. Handmade products offer such a difference in quality and feel. Her hands weave the yarn. His ideas form the clay. Her hopes brush the paint. Make something that is a part of you and share it with the world :).

Heard this on the radio while on my way to gym. Had to share. Love Yukon Gold (the band and potatoes!).

Every morning I search for somebody or body of work that inspires me. Greg Ruth…you are amazing!

I recall watching this documentary on former Love Boat cast and Gopher explained that he doesn’t eat anything with eyes or a mother. Now that I think about his statement, I wonder if that includes potatoes. How do you make the argument for veganism?

The horn section, bongo, and Charlene’s asparagus-tinted hair make this session. And that voice…Allen! San Fermin will be in Seattle on March 29th! Have a fantastic weekend folks…!!!

Unfortunately, I was unable to watch the final episode of Suits last night; however, my buddy gave me live updates via text. If you’re a fan of the show, you know the music is as stellar as Harvey’s attire. Sam Smith, Charlotte OC, and Chet Faker are just some of the innovative artists featured.

Thank you Will for keeping me in the Suits loop and for forwarding me this beautiful acoustic rendition of Latch. Made my evening :).
