Anything or anyone that does not bring you alive is too small for you. David Whyte The j-months of summer is over already, and it’s high time to wrap this project up.

Index Cards | Delicious ambiguity
Some stories don’t have a clear beginning, middle and end. Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making the best of it, without knowing what’s going to happen next.

ICAD – irresistible challenge and it’s doable too
ICAD could stand for irresistible challenge, right? At least it seams that that’s what it is to me. Irresistible. And quite doable too. Those of us who has tried it, can not resist being pulled back in and doing it year after year. But ICAD stands for “index card a day”. It’s an art challenge […]
