People do not seem to realize that their opinion of the world is also a confession of character.

Kind of want one of these.

Kind of want all of these.

Be happy for no reason, like a child. If you are happy for a reason, you’re in trouble, because that reason can be taken from you.

To change your language you must change your life.

Holi Festival (Festival of Colors), is a spring festival celebrated in India and Nepal, where all distinctions of social class are put aside. People celebrate in the streets by throwing rich handfuls of colored powders on eachother. Each person that bumps another then carries their colors.

“Most people are on the world, not in it—have no conscious sympathy or relationship to anything about them—undiffused, separate, and rigidly alone like marbles of polished stone, touching, but separate.”

—John Muir

Among other things, you’ll find that you’re not the first person who was ever confused and frightened and even sickened by human behavior. You’re by no means alone on that score, you’ll be excited and stimulated to know. Many, many men have been just as troubled morally and spiritually as you are right now. Happily, some of them kept records of their troubles. You’ll learn from them—if you want to. Just as someday, if you have something to offer, someone will learn something from you. It’s a beautiful reciprocal arrangement. And it isn’t education. It’s history. It’s poetry.

Artificial Rainbow of the Day: Seven colorful beams of light make up Yvette Mattern’s “Global Rainbow” installation, unveiled last night at St Mary’s Headland in North Tyneside.

Celebrating the London 2012 Cultural Olympiad, the ongoing installation is “intended to symbolize hope,” and stretches out some 8km from its point of origin.
