“The thing I love about you (ok, it’s one thing. one stone in a rock yard of things) is that you have this dream and you don’t let it deflate and stagnate like I do. You don’t lift your skirt and step over it to the petty, self-inflated demands of the day, like I do. You don’t keep it precious and shelved and preserved, like I do. Your thing is smoothed out in front of you, constantly, like a map of the battles you intend to wage by night. And win by daybreak.

We are here, because you are fearless. Because you consider nothing impossible. Because you show up, and work and stay the course and steady the ship and keep watch on the horizon, unsleeping. And whether dry land appears or not, you prepare for it as if it lies under the next swell. Because one day, it will lie under the next swell.”

oh so tired…is it july yet? i’m pretty sure i need a beer (or two), a glorious bike ride, and 10 hours of sleep. hoping to get 2/3 of those things this weekend. this americorps thing is starting to feel like indentured servitude…so, so, done. i don’t even want to think about how many hours i worked this week, i just hope i’m not getting sick!

on an unrelated note. i love bike & build and all the friendships I made from this incredible organization…excited to have a little b&b weekend!

““I’m not telling you to make the world better, because I don’t think that progress is necessarily part of the package. I’m just telling you to live in it. Not just to endure it, not just to suffer it, not just to pass through it, but to live in it. To look at it. To try to get the picture. To live recklessly. To take chances. To make your own work and take pride in it. To seize the moment. And if you ask me why you should bother to do that, I could tell you that the grave’s a fine and private place, but none I think do there embrace. Nor do they sing there, or write, or argue, or see the tidal bore on the Amazon… And that’s what there is to do and get it while you can and good luck at it.”

"Crying begins in the guts; it’s a gut feeling that rises upwards."

“Crying begins in the guts; it’s a gut feeling that rises upwards.”

- Michael Trimble talks about how crying works & why we do it.
