This week, a recipe for inspiration. For your consideration.
A pinch of introspection. How we know who we are. Joshua Knobe on BrainPickings.
A spoonful of introversion. 30 Problems only introverts will understand from Tickld.
A wee tipple of a comic on what to do when you’re feeling overwhelmed.
A taste of Neil Gaiman’s anti-bullying sentiments. Difference is magic.
A little edumacation on autism. What we know, and what we don’t know. Wendy Chung’s TED talk.
A smidgen of imagery. The 2014 National Geographic Traveler Photo Contest. The Atlantic.
A fair bit of travel. Distractify’s 25 cities your should visit in your lifetime.
Too much of one place I wouldn’t want to go. The forecast calls for spiders, from I fucking love science.
Some physical activity. Walking leads to increased creativity. The American Psychological Association.
A heaping serving of mortality. I guess I was feeling a little morbid this week.
- Death becomes us. The CBC’s Ideas with Paul Kennedy. Podcasty goodness. The link to part 2 is on the page as well. You’re welcome.
- 4 stories we tell ourselves about death. Stephen Cave’s TED talk.
- Amanda Bennett’s TED talk on why we need a heroic narrative for letting go.
And … to make it all better, and because I love you, a sweet bit of PUPPY STAMPEDE!
Mix it all together and what do we have? You tell me, folks 😉
It’s all Writerly Goodness.
