Orderly and Original

Quote on someones email signature:

"Be regular and orderly in your life, so that you may be violent and original in your work." 

 -Gustave Flaubert, French writer-

Expanding the mind

When you are inspired by some great purpose, some extraordinary project, all your thoughts break their bonds; your mind transcends limitations, your consciousness expands in every direction, and you find yourself in a new, great and wonderful world. Dormant forces, faculties and talents become alive, and you discover yourself to be a greater person by far than you ever dreamed yourself to be.


-- Patanjali

Found Magazine

So, I was reading the Reader's Digest and found an article about a guy that would always find random notes outside the trash bin, at the apartment building, etc.

He made an online magazine where you can submit it all.

Pretty cool. You never know what will show up every day, but always fun.

Chaos and Dancing Stars

Love how they are using the Old Spice marketing idea to market the use of the library.

Blog Pickle - Amazing scrapbooker - Dina Wakley

A few months ago I discovered some scrapbooking websites and somehow ended up at the blog of an amazing scrapbooker - Dina Wakley. The most amazing part is that she was a friend a grew up with in Michigan. Small world.

You can find her stuff all over the Internet, but thought I'd highlight her blog here because I've never seen this type of scrapbooking. Perhaps it will inspire others (and myself) to look at the capturing of memories a little differently.
