As much as I love New York City, after 5+ years here I can understand why some people leave. I’d like to leave some day, if only for a moment and live someplace else. When and if that happens, I hope New York will understand and take me back when I’m ready.

Worpswede, near Bremen, July 16th, 1903: “You are so young, so before all beginning, and I want to beg you, as much as I can, dear sir, to be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and to try to love the questions themselves like locked rooms and like books that are written in a very foreign tongue. Do not now seek the answers, which cannot be given you because you would not be...

learning how to be honest with myself—and, more importantly, with others. rather than pretending to be someone i’m not, i’m learning to just be. terrifying, but totally soul saving. i already feel lighter, more at peace, more grounded…like my feet or more firmly planted…fewer balls to juggle…less effort required. the sun’s out, the kooks are playing, and i...

things that remind me of my trip:

ode to not knowing
so distracted
going everywhere,
doing everything,
so you become nothing.
unfocused
unguarded
taken away from the present
wave

emptying into the gray
gray
gray
gray.
