Confused

I like quiet people. Who are not loud to be interesting. Who read books no one talks about. Who can sit through a 2-hour documentary about bees. They're smart, but have no need to show off. No performance. Just depth. Just a calm presence. They notice things. They think deeply. They understand more than they say. The ones who stay low-key and private in a world obsessed with being seen. And that’s what makes them rare.

To be seen. To love. To be loved.

We are all artists, all creators, all dreamers until someone tells us we aren't. No matter our ages, we need to silence those voices, those inner & outer critics, so that we can imagine, make, create, & explore our world through words, song, dance, art. (art by Sarah Hand)

My outdoor flowers are doing amazing this year because I left them at the garden center where they belong.

Sometimes I pretend I know what people are talking about just to get them to stop explaining.

So that's why it's called eggplant.

Well I don't know how much luckier I can get but apparently I have a concert violinist living below me, practicing now. I can't believe my ears. So the walls are thin but in this case, great! Plays piano too. Almost brought me to tears. I'm getting this for free. I love it.

I have absolutely no problem getting to sleep when it’s time to get up.

What hair color do they put on the driver's licenses of bald men?

Living in Arizona isn't for sissies this time of year.

I just recently realized that my favorite color is only yellow bc this one girl few years ago said it was hers and shared what it means to her, how profound it was for me to hear that & I wanted to be friends with her so I said mine was too. ever since I'm a yellow color person.

me not being weird is more weird than me being weird.
