I would love to believe that, when we evolve to the next place, we’re not going to have to utilize crisis as the basis for transformation, but that love might be the basis or connection might be the basis.

Our cultural mode of debating issues by way of competing certainties comes with a drive to resolution. We want others to acknowledge that our answers are right. We call the debate or get on the same page or take a vote and move on. The alternative involves a different orientation to the point of conversing in the first place: to invite searching — not on who is right and who is wrong and the arguments on every side; not on whether we can agree; but on what is at stake in human terms for us all.

So much of romantic relationships is based on timing. Two individuals' lives aligning for enough time to make something stick. And I seem to have some bad luck with timing.
Today one of my ex-boyfriends is having a baby, and yesterday one of my best friends in college got married. I'm not in either of their lives anymore, though. Growing up & growing apart is weird.
After a long winter/spring of wanting to stay in and do nothing, I finally broke out of it by doing pizza on the patio at Harmony & the Meanwhile movie at Wealthy St Theatre. Classic Tuesday in GR.
also, with same person, I could not stop from smiling with envy when he was updating me on the UN projects on religion & diplomacy he's been working on. so glad to have him in GR more moving forward to continue to pick his brain about his cool life!
whennnn...
you go out for dinner & drinks with a work colleague/friend and he’s like “oh yeah I can help you meet Krista Tippett”
Northern Spain, 3 years ago❤️
For the last three years, I've wanted to do the Camino de Santiago - the pilgrimage across northern Spain - and always planned to do so sometime before the next significant chapter of my life begins (whether it's a new city, new career, new education path, or whatever). So, as of right now, at this age of 25, I can only walk a quarter of a mile before I feel significantly sore in my hips from my arthritis. Which makes the pilgrimage (which is 500 miles total, and I'd probably want to do just a portion of that), seem very unlikely. Hoping I can build up my strength/ability so I can still do the Camino.
See Andy Samberg and Adam Levine perform “I’m So Humble” on The Voice.
Will Toledo is a singer-songwriter who performs under the name Car Seat Headrest. He self-released 11 albums before signing to a major label, and his new collection is called Teens of Denial. Rock critic Ken Tucker says the new album is ambitious and passionate:
“It’s been said that Will Toledo took the name Car Seat Headrest because he recorded some of his first songs while sitting in his car, a refuge for some privacy. Still in his early 20s, Toledo sings exactly like you might expect a young man craving both solitude and connection with the world might sound: conflicted, moody, wry, depressed, and angry around the edges. Like a lot of good rock music, he makes his intense self-consciousness compelling, even exhilarating.”

It’s so crazy and just has to be unhealthy how everyone plays like they’ve got their act together and their life is all bright and shiny when posting things online. But really, we’re almost all a mess. We need more of the mess sharing.
a few thoughts that I'm too tired to write in my actual journal -lifestyle changes are hard -autoimmune diseases suck, especially as they progress (get worse) and nothing you do helps -but sharing the fact that I'm in pain, sharing my suffering, has helped me feel better / feel seen -I think I've cried almost every night for the past week or two and I know I'll get used to a new normal but this is hard
sitting in the back at a show almost in tears from my arthritis pain....who am I and what has happened in the last year to my life?!
