patience, shadow

if there's a god, he is laughing at us and our football team.

Before you speak ask yourself: Is it kind, is it necessary, it is true, does it improve upon the silence?

I hope that in this year to come, you make mistakes.

Because if you are making mistakes, then you are making new things, trying new things, learning, living, pushing yourself, changing yourself, changing your world. You’re doing things you’ve never done before, and more importantly, you’re Doing Something.

So that’s my wish for you, and all of us, and my wish for myself. Make New Mistakes. Make glorious, amazing mistakes. Make mistakes nobody’s ever made before. Don’t freeze, don’t stop, don’t worry that it isn’t good enough, or it isn’t perfect, whatever it is: art, or love, or work or family or life.

Whatever it is you’re scared of doing, Do it.

Make your mistakes, next year and forever.

I like living. I have sometimes been wildly, despairingly, acutely miserable, racked with sorrow, but through it all I still know quite certainly that just to be alive is a grand thing.

“I think I had a major costume malfunction the first night. One of my wings didn’t open. I looked like an injured duck. We pretend what we’re doing is high production, but it’s actually barely held together by masking tape and paper clips.” - Spin, Aug. 2011

Don’t be dismayed at goodbyes. A farewell is necessary before you can meet again.

Shit is the tofu of cursing and can be molded to whichever condition the speaker desires. Hot as shit. Windy as shit. I myself was confounded as shit…
