Musings from August

In a place where anything goes, the best always comes.

I stumbled upon this quote (in the context of creativity and creation) and it has a permanent place here, a tagline if you will:

“In a place where anything goes, the best aways comes”.

Love celebrating the closing of each month by highlighting what has inspired me. Everything and anything at all. Just like a fun catch-up dinner with a friend you haven’t seen in a while, there’s lots to cover! Side tangents inevitable.

Reading. A Man’s Search for Meaning. I can’t tell you how many times I have heard someone reference this book as one of the best memoirs they’ve read. Finally ordered it and am a few chapters in, will report back!

Also in the queue:

Watching. About to press play on Bad Monkey! Are you guys watching? Thoughts?! I’m back to The Office reruns, too, such a comfort and endlessly makes me laugh.

Listening to. Evergreen on audible (a new tradition anytime there is a season shift coming). I discovered this book last year and absolutely love it. Just a beautiful outlook on the seasons of life and how each and every one is special in their own right. If you haven’t read/listened, I really think you’ll like it! Also this song / the whole album, going to see her soon! The build…

Note(s) to self. I am always grabbing my phone notepad to jot down sentiments, ideas, or quotes I hear that strike me in some way so thought this would be a fun place to share them when I have some on hand. This month we have: “every relationship that comes into your life is for either a reason, season, or lifetime”. | I also loved this from a podcast episode (blanking which now) “Hang with clowns, expect a circus” — too good. | “I think one of my favorite feelings is laughing with someone and realizing half way through how much you enjoy them and their existence.” — agreed! I couldn’t find the source, but love this. Hang on tightly to those who enhance your life, lift you up, and brings you that kind of belly-laugh joy. The “lifetimers”!
