Everything will be okay. A good reminder.
Kindness
This is from a commencement speech by George Saunders to Syracuse University in 2013. The speech on kindness went viral and is now becoming a book. This is an exceptionally thoughtful passage.
Garden season
For gardeners and non-gardeners alike - good advice.

A baby quilt
They should have received it in the mail by now, so I can finally share the baby quilt I made for Wilder Flynn, the new son of James and Jennifer. It's the kind of thing you'd never make for your own kid, because you are too sleep deprived, but I was happy to craft this for the new little dude.
Inspired by the colors of the ocean near their California home, the front is a blue ombré, and the back is a tonal print. All machine stitched. Hopefully he has much chance to use it when he gets home from the hospital!
Congrats, Flynns!

The past is always yours to keep.

Wishing you a wonderful weekend.

In honor of one of the most significant authors of our time...a man who knew a thing or two about solitude, and magic.
