issue sixteen: find joy « this joy ride
let’s make a commitment to reconnect with joy.
we’re not just saying “snap out of it and get joyful!”
but let’s make a promise to practice joy
even when we aren’t feeling that joyful.

life words everywhere
"these are words that speak to me. i see them out in the world and i capture them - a small moment of happy for me each time i see one."
hold on
"as in hold on to your hope.
your dreams.
your memories.
your faith.
your joy.
your love."
inchmark - inchmark journal - spring in a box
I gathered an assortment of all things yellow and orange and wrapped them up in the brightest paper I could find, including a note about how spring would definitely come.. that they had almost made it through the long cold winter.
│常常│
"常常的習性,來自於習慣,習慣也來自於自然。我們都常堅持自己的理論,都認為是正確的一面,滿嘴的道理德行卻並非如此。
早晨是我沉思的開始,對於昨日的種種與今日的開始,有著不同的檢討。人跟人也是如此,靠著時間來琢磨彼此的個性,無論美醜善惡,都有著一份交集,二面的事情必有所因。"

b is for book
When our son C was born, my husband's family put together a bag full of favorite children's books. Each person in the family chose a book, and wrote a little note explaining why they had picked it and what they hoped C would learn from it. It was such a thoughtful gift, and almost five years later, many of those books are my son's favorites.

莫內拯救了情緒病人
走到Monet 的Water Lilies中央,看著他漫延輕步,淺白的陽光反射,沉默細語的湖面,幽暗間的疑惑,被覆蓋上一片一片串連的細蓮葉子,不動聲息滑過水面,走一少步,停著,不經意間踏了另一小步,寂靜,依著水流,劃過了心境起伏不停的情緒,片刻喘息,最後,沉睡在那一片深藍。
阿里山,日出有大美
莊子說:「天地有大美而不言。」
意指天地與人世間存在著無以言表的美麗、美好與美妙,
但天地始終沉默無言,並不張揚。
透過詩歌、言語,我們將其描繪出來,因而有藝術之美,
但我相信無論如何都不及親眼所見。

A Day is a Tourist, A Year is a Traveler
『A day is a step, a year is a tango. A day is a tourist, a year is a traveler. A day is a chance encounter, a year says love. A day is frustration, a year is a melody. A day is a lump of clay, a year is whatever you want it to be. A day is a thought, a year is a philosophy. Every year counts. Glenfiddich.』-Glenfiddich〈Every Year Counts〉TVC

magical thinking
"So I started writing down the funnier moments of the day. I keep a jar on my desk, and when the kids say something particularly worthy of recording, I grab a scrap of paper (phone bill, envelope, chopstick holder.. whatever is lying around) and I quickly jot it down. "
"The jar is filling up quickly, and when I'm having a below average day, I reach in and pull out a quote.. and suddenly I'm laughing and running to hug my little comedians."

幸福的筆 / 想像的白紙 / 思考的尺規
這一段文字,在我的內心產生了很大的撞擊,除了汗顏自詡為設計師卻沒有這樣認真想過這樣的事情外,更衝擊的是我對文字的運用,文字對於我來說是打開了世界的窗口還是困於夢想的沙洲?一段文字或是一張圖,所產生的共鳴性不同,想像的空間更是無遠弗屆,全賴於我怎麼給一個新的定義!
文具輔助我們將想法寫下或畫下,更是一個值得玩味的貼心物。
