12 it's pouring outside

people validate you stories. they let you know that you're not making stuff up. whether today was a good day or bad depends on whether or not someone had the chance to share it.

77 imperfection

clearly, this whole blog thing isn't working out for me. i feel as if i'm too busy to post, or more like it's useless to post. also it's because i've always been too caught up with perfection. i need my entries to be organized, short, clear, concise, powerful, elegant, a step towards perfect, though i admit the entries are far from.

from now on, my entries will be more random, more disorganized, more unreadable, more imperfect. perhaps then i'll start to write. i also hate it when i try to be witty in the midst of imperfections. too much thinking.

really need a new perspective of life right now. been too caught up with everything. things are not terrible don't get me wrong. just need to think more, though thinking can be so annoying.
of course money grows on trees...what century are you living in?

number four- the missing piece

i've been reading the Pursuit of Elegance by Matthew E. May. it's a really interesting book- focusing on the idea of, obviously, elegance. i will pose more art relating to the ideas of elegance. elegance is marked by mainly four ideas- symmetry, seduction, subtraction, and sustainability.

if you haven't recognized already, which you should, this picture is the upper case E. "it's the transformative idea that lies at the heart of elegance: what isn't there can often trump what is."-M.E. May
