I went on a Museum of Modern Art splurge today and went through their archive of photos.
Here are a few that struck me as particularly fantastic.

And that's only a taste. I highly encourage you to go scouting through the collections yourself. So long for now.

Some brain food.

When you wake up, is it real life you are waking into - or is it really just one long dream interrupted by spurts of real life which we hardly ever remember?
When you fall asleep, are you actually entering a state of interconnected consciousness with the people around you; or is it only you in your mind, opening it up? Which truth would be scarier?
You decide.

Canada Day

Hello friends!

This post is dedicated to anyone out there that still reads this blog. You are a hero.
Posting has been a bit sparse lately. I know that personally...I have just not felt motivated or creative enough to write anything. I am breaking the silent trend.

Today is Canada Day. I had to work, but hopefully you didn't have to. Hopefully you spent the day covered from head to toe in red and white, screaming loudly, eating food, and watching fireworks.

Keep shining. There will be much more to read soon!
