It's always interesting to me how mundane + obvious these type of lists feel in the moment. But when I come across them later, there is something unfamiliar + lovely about them. I think it would be kind of delicious to find such a list tucked into a book or in the pocket of a jacket next fall. Similarly, I often keep fortune cookie fortunes or tickets from a movie or boat ride tucked into a bag or pocket to come across later. They always elicit a smile + often a conversation. Why shouldn't good things + sacred moments offer smiles more than once?
It's usually more effective to team up with a species than to create a machine.
A plastic spoon in every brain.
The housing was sold at cost.
Hope your weekend involves some sunshine + some quiet moments.
Much love,
