- 19:26 feels the need to point and giggle at all those borked by Hasbro killing Scrabulous.
Something to think about
Jul. 30th, 2008 10:15 pmran across this in
shadowmorphic's journal.
"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? Youare a child of God. Your playing small doesn't serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are born to make manifest the Glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us, it's in everyone, and as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others."
--Nelson Mandela
This right here is the exact right thing I needed to read tonight. I don't know why, but something which "shhhhhhhhhhhclick!" and I went "ahhh, okay."
Yeah. Shutting up and being inspired now.

Something I NEED to do.
Jul. 30th, 2008 10:54 pmI was in the Jones library for a few minutes today, idly wandering through the stacks looking for something new to catch my fancy.
Instead of finding something, I had that curious phenomenon where an entire collective mass of paper, ink, cloth, glue and thread rises up and yells "WHY ARE YOU LOOKING FOR SOMETHING TO READ? YOU SHOULD BE WRITING!!" at me. Very curious, especially given that no one else hears that but me. I know no one else heard it, there would have been dirty looks and emphatic "shhhh!" noises from the other patrons reading around me.
Yeah, this happens sometimes. Though, considering I spend more time in bookstores than libraries, I've had it happen more in the fiction stacks of Bunns and Noodle more often than I'd like.
I need to start writing again. For real.

- 22:35 is squishy, cuddly steel. No really. If I say that a few more times maybe I'll believe it.
