“I’m not telling you to make the world better I’m just telling you to live in it. Not just to endure it, not just to suffer it, not just to pass through it, but to live in it. To look at it. To take chances. To make your own work and take pride in it."

Joan Didion 

 

From now on, I am going to belong Entirely to the earth. Be earth’s for the taking. I’ll lie on top here first, and then lie under.
