For NYE in Japan, Zack and I went to Konkai Komyo-ji Temple to participate in their bell ringing ceremony. Here’s a video of something that was meaningful to us but absolutely no one else could possibly care about. Please watch the entire thing at least four times.
Dog Of Wisdom
I will never, in all my years, write anything better than this.
Gates of Heaven - Lady in the Doorway
I don’t really know what tumblr is anymore. I’m like 30 years old and I don’t have anything interesting to say and I question my importance in the universe every day. And like, I’m not really sure where reposting animated GIFs falls into that. But I DO know that Errol Morris is my new great love affair. And I know that I feel so stupid for not being a college sophomore when I pronounce that. The point is: Gates of Heaven is so beautiful. It’s one of those things you watch while you tell yourself “It’s important to my life/worldview that I’m watching this.” Or maybe you don’t take in media like that because you’re well adjusted. The point is: if you have not watched Gates of Heaven, please God, watch it. And if you’re super adamant against it, please God, at least watch this clip.
She is so beautiful. The pain of the world, sometimes it’s so overwhelming and manifests itself in these ways that we just have to be open to but this woman. Her openness, her willingness to confide in her secrets as a barter for companionship is so heartbreaking and vulnerable and… beautiful. A hopelessly overused word, especially in this post but I don’t know how else to describe her.
Again, I just want to say that I am in a new and exciting love affair with EM maybe 10 years too late to be interesting, but please bear with me. I am just so grateful that this exists. I really do think it’s one of the most heartbreaking and formidable things I’ve ever seen.
“I wondered what would come of our interaction. If nothing else, I thought it would make a good story. But I see now that the story isn’t about us; it’s about what it means to bother to know someone, which is really a story about what it means to be known.”
Father John Misty - I Love You, Honey Bear
A truly dystopian love song. Yearning and devotion looped slowly around raw imagery of sexuality and poverty. Hi, hello. Yes, I do have an English degree that I’m not using. This song is beautiful.
Russia’s remote north-eastern Chukotka region is an inhospitable arctic tundra, but even in this brutal landscape, Russian photographer Ivan Kislov can find beautiful signs of life among the foxes that live and hunt here in the wild.
I don’t mean to brag, but someone loves me verea muth.
I was worried I wouldn’t love parenting a school-aged kid as much as I have loved the baby, toddler, and preschool phases. Turns out it’s fucking amazing.
