"Just as noise is meaningless without quiet," Fabrica CEO Dan Hill once observed, "connectivity becomes meaningless when pervasive, when it is without a few 'sanctuary spaces' as contrast."

Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most important tool I've ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything - all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure - these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important.

Ensuring food supply resilience is important to land-scarce countries such as Singapore. Mr Jack Ng the founder of Sky Greens, has shown that it is possible through innovative and green solutions, for high-rise vertical farming in urban cities, to achieve significant higher yields per unit area of land.

+Jake Johnson said...

Please create a photograph around the quote by Charlotte Brontë from the novel Jane Eyre. I am no bird; and no net ensnares me: I am a free human being with an independent will.

This week I spent $900 saving a cat with asthma, sometimes I think I no longer am in control of myself and my life. I've made many choices, some turned out amazing, some not so much. I can truly admit that I never sold my independence or that of my daughter even when it would have made my life so much easier

and for that I can feel proud (oh and for how amazing my daughter turned out, this is a photo of her btw) ♥

I kinda preferred this quote, also from Jane Eyre

you jest

from yesterday's Selfy Sunday Project

I am not very good at this game called Life, for I've not learned to see children crying without feeling pain, for I've not learned to watch animals being destroyed without wondering why. For I've not yet met a king or celebrity that I would bow down to, or a man so insignificant that I would use for a stepping-stone. For I've not yet learned to be a "yes man" to narrow minded bosses who quote rules without reason, and I've not learned to manipulate the feelings of others to be used for my own advantages, then cast aside as I see fit. No, I am not very good at this game called Life, and if everything goes well, maybe I never will be... ~javan

1. She isn't thinking that she needs to lose weight.
2. She isn't thinking she needs to lose it from her thighs, specifically.
3. She isn't thinking that she's going to "pay" for the bread she ate with lunch.
4. She isn't thinking, I don't deserve to eat.
5. She isn't thinking about how many pounds to lose on her next juice cleanse.
6. She isn't thinking that men would want her more if she were thinner.

8. She isn't thinking about what age she should start getting botox.
