So Much Happiness
•••
A poem, an image, an idea, that I read on a friend's bathroom wall decades ago and that I've since carried with me everywhere, always by Naomi Shihab Nye Here is all of it: So Much Happiness It is difficult to know what to do with so much happiness. With sadness there is something to rub against, a wound to tend with lotion and cloth. When the world falls in around you, you have pieces to pick up, something to hold in your hands, like ticket stubs or change. But happiness floats. It doesn’t need you to hold it down. It doesn’t need anything. Happiness lands on the roof of the next house, singing, and disappears when it wants to. You are happy either way. Even the fact that you once lived in a peaceful tree house and now live over a quarry of noise and dust cannot make you unhappy. Everything has a life of its own, it too could wake up filled with possibilities of coffee cake and ripe peaches, and love even the floor which needs to be swept, the soiled linens and scratched records . . . Since there is no place large enough to contain so much happiness, you shrug, you raise your hands, and it flows out of you into everything you touch. You are not responsible. You take no credit, as the night sky takes no credit for the moon, but continues to hold it, and share it, and in that way, be known.

Mother Tongue
•••
Loosely but not really about motherhood. Mostly a smart and gorgeous art and culture publication.

Robert Irwin: A Desert of Pure Feeling
•••
One of my favorite artist documentaries. Robert Irwin's work is very conceptual so it can be easy to just walk away from it. But it's truly stunning. And the thing I love about this movie is that you see him as a totally ordinary human, collaborating with other humans joyfully in service of making his work the best that it can be.

The Dark Wizard
•••
The HBO series “The Dark Wizard” is about the life of Dean Potter, a rock climber who also saw himself as a performance artist of sorts. That rings true as you watch him seek and struggle with the outer reaches of human emotional and physical experiences. The first couple episodes left me laughing, the latter two, totally wrecked. 100% recommend (especially as an antidote to everything AI).
