"Maybe some women aren't meant to be tamed. Maybe they just need to run free until they find someone just as wild to run with them." — Carrie Bradshaw
“Nietzsche also proposed a second kind of tourism, whereby we may learn how our societies and identities have been formed by the past and so acquire a sense of continuity and belonging.
The person practising this kind of tourism ‘looks beyond his own individual transitory existence and feels himself to be the spirit of his house, his race, his city’.
He can gaze at old buildings and feel ‘the happiness of knowing that he is not wholly accidental and arbitrary but grown out of a past as its heir, flower, and fruit, and that his existence is thus excused and indeed justified'.”
—The Art of Travel by Alain de Botton
“No changing of place at a hundred miles an hour will make us one whit stronger, happier, or wiser. There was always more in the world than men could see, walked they ever so slowly; they will see it no better for going fast. The really precious things are thought and sight, not pace”
–Ruskin
“What, then, is a travelling mind-set? Receptivity might be said to be its chief characteristic. Receptive, we approach new places with humility. We carry with us no rigid ideas about what is or is not interesting. We irritate locals because we stand in traffic islands and narrow streets and admire what they take to be unremarkable small details. We risk getting run over because we are intrigued by the roof of a government building or an inscription on a wall”
The Art of Travel, Alain De Botton
"The mythologies we ascribe to, whether consciously or unconsciously, determine how we measure, reflect on, and make sense of our experiences
We must take responsibility for deriving meaning from our life experiences, our relationships, and our place in the cosmos as a whole — and it's up to us, each, as individuals, to create for ourselves our own personal code, to become our own heroes, and embark again on a fresh exploration"
"We need the tonic of wildness—At the same time that we are earnest to explore and learn all things, we require that all things be mysterious and unexplorable, that land and sea be infinitely wild, unsurveyed and unfathomed by us because unfathomable.
We can never have enough of nature. We must be refreshed by the sight of inexhaustible vigor, vast and titanic features, the sea-coast with its wrecks, the wilderness with its living and its decaying trees, the thunder-cloud, and the rain which lasts three weeks and produces freshets.
We need to witness our own limits transgressed, and some life pasturing freely where we never wander" 👟
— Walden by Henry David Thoreau
"What he sought was always something lying ahead, and even if it was a matter of the past it was a past that changed gradually as he advanced on his journey, because the traveller's past changes according to the route he has followed: not the immediate past, that is, to which each day that goes by adds a day, but the more remote past....
Arriving at each new city, the traveller finds again a past of his that he did not know he had: the foreignness of what you no longer are or no longer possess lies in wait for you in foreign, unpossessed places."
—Italo Calvino, Invisible Cities

"He loved mountains, or he had loved the thought of them marching on the edge of stories brought from far away."
— J.R.R. Tolkien, The Lord of the Rings

"Cities were always like people, showing their varying personalities to the traveler.
Depending on the city and on the traveler, there might begin a mutual love, or dislike, friendship, or enmity. Where one city will rise a certain individual to glory, it will destroy another who is not suited to its personality. Only through travel can we know where we belong or not, where we are loved and where we are rejected."
—Roman Payne (Cities & Countries)

“Some of my kin look just like trees now, and need something great to rouse them; and they speak only in whispers. But some of my trees are limb-lithe, and many can talk to me.”
― Treebeard (J.R.R. Tolkien, The Two Towers)

Age is irrelevant. Ask me how many sunsets I’ve seen, hearts I’ve loved, trips I’ve taken, or concerts I’ve been to. That’s how old I am #✈️
September is perfect for new beginnings. Typically January is the beginning of the year, but for me September always feels like New Year.

Today. It just feels happy, doesn’t it? 🍃🌷
Life just feels really *positive* right now. But I really believe it’s because I’ve been putting in the work to feel that way… making healthier choices and taking care of myself. 💪🌈
⋅
It’s so easy to put off taking care of ourselves… (I can get avoidant or too busy or lazy 😁) BUT it’s really worth it. ! Lots of love and have an awesome day 💚
“ 'Anything I learnt would have to be justified by private benefit rather than by the interest of others. My discoveries would have to enliven me; they would have in some way to prove ‘life-enhancing’.
The term was Nietzsche's. In the autumn of 1873, Friedrich Nietzsche composed an essay in which he distinguished between collecting facts like an explorer or academic and using already well known facts to the end of inner, psychological enrichment”

My ’two weekends ago cut' haircut is a throwback to my shorter hair days in college and I’m grateful I have all this documentation through the years to be able to do that. 😝📷 ⋅
I love having the freedom to be so candid and unfiltered in my photos now, just more personal. 💞 Life these days is exciting, and filled with inspiration, fulfilling work, and no pressure. 🌈⛅️

September is perfect for new beginnings. Typically January is the beginning of the year, but for me September always feels like New Year.
I was finally able to squeeze a nap in today (I try to avoid them cos I end up staying up so late). Actually, I had no choice, I was so tired from this entire day, I was literally "Dead to the World."
But I am really happy it's over and that it is officially summer! (for me). :-)
