Taco Debrief
Just got home from work at the Whole Enchilada. It’s this small fast-casual mexican restaurant in Fort Lauderdale . I worked there during high school and now I’m back this summer. I absolutely love working there because we have the best customers. Sometimes people come in alone, order some tacos, and chat with me forever about the oddities of their day, or their family issues or why...

This summer.
It’s so weird how life changes so suddenly. My summer looks much differently tonight than it did a few weeks ago and even more differnt than it looked last summer. I’ve had a tough week working through changes and getting my feet back on the ground and I don’t think I’ve ever spent so much time with myself. I’m not trying to sound melodramatic, I just think it’s...
You are something good and so am I.

"The Most Amazing Challenge" by Paul Hawken
“Ralph Waldo Emerson once asked what we would do if the stars only came out once every thousand years. No one would sleep that night, of course. The world would create new religions overnight. We would be ecstatic, delirious, made rapturous by the glory of God. Instead, the stars come out every night and we watch television.
This extraordinary time when we are globally aware of each other...
Hope: An Owners Manual
Hope; An Owner’s Manual
Look, you might as well know, this thing is going to take endless repair: rubber bands, crazy glue, tapioca, the square of the hypotenuse. Nineteenth century novels. Heartstrings, sunrise: all of these are useful. Also, feathers.
To keep it humming, sometimes you have to stand on an incline, where everything looks possible; on the line you drew yourself. Or in...

wow.
“The youth are now looking beyond the madness, beyond the man. They are looking at the ideas. They are looking at the Enemy. They are seeing their own flaws and calling them to the surface. They are loving the man behind the madness and seeing themselves in him. They are cleaving to the Enemy and singing songs of strength, brotherhood, and victory over evil. They are doing the most...

I like people Who do not shudder At the prospect of having too much to do.
People who would rather Pick up a few more books Than a few more hours Of sleep.
People who spend Days in the sun And nights under The glare of a hundred flaming bulbs Surrounded by stone And coffee And quiet.
