“The hardest thing about being alive is that we exist as accidents of chance, and the universe does not hand us meaning. Nobody and nothing will give us meaning. We have to make it. And I think love is an instrument for how to do that.” — Maria Popova From a beautiful conversation between Debbie […]
Artist Guridi
Loving these illustrations by artist Guridi. (Whispers: Makes me miss Tattly, the temporary tattoo company I once ran and is now defunct.)

Collection of Vintage User-Interfaces
Whoa! A massive archive of old-school user-interface screenshots. As a former user-interface designer, this archive definitely put a smile on my face.
We But Mirror The World
“We but mirror the world. All the tendencies present in the outer world are to be found in the world of our body. If we could change ourselves, the tendencies in the world would also change. As a man changes his own nature, so does the attitude of the world change towards him. This is […]

The Distance between Deciding and Doing
“The distance between deciding and doing is the single most reliable predictor of whether your life will be extraordinary or ordinary. Not talent, not circumstances, not even the quality of your decisions-but how quickly you collapse the space between intention and reality. Think of this gap as a…
