“The books that the world calls immoral are books that show the world its own shame.”

start from where you will - sing for our time too.

for days of hauling books

good things to pay attention to more often

the color of trees

clouds and how they look different throughout the day

the different colors the mornings can have. sometimes it's an orange hue and sometimes pink and sometimes it's too misty to tell

pretty color schemes in random places (the trees and your neighbors wooden patio and the color of their car)

the states of the vehicles passing you by, dents and scratches and the different trinkets suspended from their rearview mirrors

the sound of silence

the shadows the lights cast in your home, like how sunset looks different than sunrise, and the shadows the sun casts look different than those of your lamps and candles

pretty details in buildings and houses like certain types of windows or doorknobs or archways

the movement of things in the wind. flags, leaves, flowers, people's hair and coats

51. What question could you ask to find out the most about a person?

My answer (fair’s fair) is a well- timed “how are you?” I find if you ask at a moment they’re concentrating on something else, or otherwise demonstrate genuine interest or even curiosity, most people (yes, even us English) will give an honest answer, sometimes more honest than they mean to.

Oohh, what an interesting question! I feel like I would also ask "how are you doing?" But or me, I would ask "What do you want to do?" Sometimes, they'll answer what they want to do in the present moment like grabbing a coffee, or they'll dive into a monologue about what they want for their future or dream job/education. I think it reveals more about the person whether they answer in "present" or "future" terms. You get to know how they feel or where they want to be right now or you understand what they really want for themselves in the long term.

there is something about coffee that makes it so soothing to the soul
