KNOWLEDGE is KNOWLEDGE

Knowledge is knowledge only when it takes a shape, 
when it can be put into words, or reduced to a principle 
— and it’s now up to you to go to work on your own gold mine, to refine the crude ore.

I love this quote.  It’s from another great list from an article in Brain Pickings called: “14 Ways to Acquire Knowledge: A Timeless Guide from 1936.”  It reminds me of how we have to make what we know physical in order for it to be understood, seen and experienced.  Within the shape, form, letter, picture, pose we get to play and refine autonomously until we get to where we want to be and then we start again.  Link to the article here:

= An INVINCIBLE SUMMER =

In the depth of winter,

I finally learned that within me there lay an invincible summer.

I bought this little book about 2 years ago at a summer pop up sale in Stevens Square.  I had to have it, the materials it’s made of and it’s construction were so interesting and pretty.
I wasn’t sure what to do with it.  It’s too fragile to throw in my everyday bag and carry around with me. It needed to be a project.  So I decided to take my love of text and shiny hardware store letters and make it a book about The Gita.  But keep it simple (if that’s possible).  The idea is to distill each of the 18 chapters down in to a few simple words.  The words sum up each chapter and tell a story as a whole as you move through the book simply and visually.
A perfect project for yet another wintery day in April.  Thanks to Albert Camus for the quote.

Variations on GREEN

I got to get my hands dirty today, which makes it a good day.

And the sun was out, even better.

And it was warm, well warm enough for my first installation anyway.

It’s so lovely to get to see variations of green again…more color on the way soon.

I love my jobs.

That’s my little poem for what feels like the first day of Spring and happily so.

Whatever you choose, pick it now, 
start small,  and begin proving to yourself that you can become the type of person you want to become.
Tiny habits, when repeated consistently, 
can be the difference between success or failure, confidence or doubt, and even happiness or depression.

From a great article written by James Clear called Natural Happiness: The Truth About Exercise and Depression.  He talks a lot about how proving to ourselves we can do something physically creates more capacity in our lives.  
It’s a great article …read it here: jamesclear.quora.com

((( Greenhouse Spa )))

Scenes from a day at the spa greenhouse style.  
I am a lucky girl…I got to spend the day yesterday shopping for spring inside my wholesalers greenhouses.  It was such a nice treat for the eyes to see so much green in one place and to feel and smell such lively, earthy air.  I love how this process of design begins in fields of 4″ containers.

I now have a sunporch full of plant material and am dying to get my hands dirty.

“thy fingers make early flowers of all things…”
