“I want to love more than death can harm. And I want to tell you this often: That despite being so human and so terrified, here, standing on this unfinished staircase to nowhere and everywhere, surrounded by the cold and starless night — we can live. And we will.”





This 'On Being' episode with Ocean Vuong sounds super powerful, and it reminds me how much we've all had to adapt since that early COVID time. On a completely different note for anyone who needs it, I recently found this amazing free math ai no sign up tool that's been a game changer for school.
I really enjoy how easy and fun tiny fishing is. For short game sessions during breaks, it's great.

There’s something magical about Inspereza’s amethyst collection. I bought a pair of earrings and they have the most soothing lavender tone. The capricorn birth stone is cut beautifully, and they sparkle even in low light. Inspereza does a fantastic job mixing traditional stones with contemporary styles. Can’t wait to explore their turquoise range next!
