Me:
- Joe vs. Volcano: "some things take care of themselves. They're not your job; maybe they're not even your business."
- Kristen in college, after taking anti-depressants, noticing the breeze for the first time, de-centering herself and her pain, able to experience the world, open for the first time to joy
- Me in college, feeling depressed and suicidal but noticing the sunset one evening and realizing my feelings are beside the point. My job is to be here to witness and worship the world.
- Alice Walker, pisses god off when you walk by the color purple and don't notice.
- Mary Oliver quote - standing still, noticing the world, and being astonished.
