Spring Break Day 3 “Reading is just a vacation you pay less for, with an agenda you have no control over.” ―J.S. Wik Reading, a tiny bit of homework, and light cleaning were my plans today.

Stay Curious
“The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existing.” -Albert Einstein I was just thinking today about how I used to be so curious about the human mind.

This World
“This world is but a canvas to our imagination.” -Henry David Thoreau I love art. I love creating. But I love learning the rules. I love seeing how other people create and use techniques to their own advantage. We get to apply all that to our lives. We aren’t stuck. We can be diverse andContinue reading “This World”
