La Piedra Del Peñol is a monolithic formation located in Antioquia, Colombia. A viewing spot was built on top of the rock, where it is possible to acquire handicrafts, postcards, and other local goods. There are a total of 740 steps to the top.

It’s that low estate of mending that’s the real trouble. People in libraries think mending lacks glamor, a dull job to be suffered through as best you can. Now, why? It’s a fairly messy job, and sticky, but so are most handicrafts. People fool around with clay creating peculiar ash trays; they fill the house with sawdust; they make gardens in wet mud full of worms; they splash their smocks with paint making tole trays. This is known as recreation. To me, re-creating a book beats such pastimes hollow. Our little gang of glue-fiends simply busts its buttons with pride when a hopeless case turns into a handsome, solid volume which can not only circulate but be safely thrown at the cat.

A while ago, I penned a fairly angry response to something circulating on the internet – the 21 Habits of Happy People. It pissed me off beyond belief, that there was an inference that if you weren’t Happy, you simply weren’t doing the right things.

I’ve had depression for as long as I can...
