Last week I went to Scoops (the best ice cream shop, ever) right before they closed and they gave me the whole container of their leftover blueberry lavender ice cream to take home. I, for some reason, forgot about it until just now. Tried it. Can’t tell what to make of it. It’s definitely more lavender than blueberry. And it’s definitely more peculiar than delicious. I think I...

Seek not to become Zeus.
For mortals a mortal lot is best.
Mortal minds must seek what is fitting
at the hands of the gods,
knowing what lies at our feet
and to what portion we are born.
Strive not, my soul, for an immortal life,
but use to the full the resources
that are at thy command.
— Pindar, Isthmia and Pythis III
I like to see people reunited. Maybe that’s a silly thing, but what can I say? I like to see people run to each other. I like the kissing and the crying. I like the impatience, the stories that the mouth can’t tell fast enough, the ears that aren’t big enough, the eyes that can’t take all of the change. I like the hugging, the bringing together, the end of missing...

She loved to jump on her bed. She jumped on her bed for so many years that one afternoon, while I watched her jump, the seams burst. Feathers filled the small room. Our laughter kept the feathers in the air. I thought about birds. Could they fly if there wasn’t someone, somewhere, laughing?

2012 Resolutions
This year I’m going to…
Love, appreciate and respect my body, mind and soul.
Allow room for mistakes.
Get better at admitting when I’m wrong.
Remember to breathe.
Savor the moments.
Start everyday with a smile, not with a to-do list.
Be my own rock and trust that it’s safe to fall.
Don’t sweat the small stuff.
Let it go.
Have more adventures.
Have more...

The Season of Giving
Since the season of giving has finally approached us this year, I’ve decided to tell all of you about an outstanding organization I have recently become involved with called PLAN. They deal with improving the lives of nearly 1.5 million children in 50 developing nations through sponsorships that cost you as little as $30 a month, or rather— $1 a day. When you put it into perspective,...

The Staff Recommends
As an avid reader I’m always on the search for new books. I’ve currently filled up my summer reading list with the likes of C.S. Lewis’s The Four Loves and Mere Christianity as well as other religious inspired novels, but on the days I need an escape from a hectic day nothing treats me better than a good fictional tale. Luckily enough I’ve found a wonderful advertorial...
