I love this street art. I couldn’t decide on a favorite, and would prefer to wander the city and view them all a few times. Thanks to streetart360.net for bringing these to us across the lovely worldwide web.
Looking In
Looking in the mirror
reveals the father’s old man face
but smiling shows the young boy
and the youth I knew was me
The Energies
He doesn’t want to be with her, because she’s crazy.
He avoids being with him, because he’s sick, and he doesn’t want to catch whatever he has.
She must be avoided, because her neediness exhausts him.
He can’t stand being with them, because their smugness enervates his Chakras and burns down his soul, and they must be ducked because their ignorance diminishes his joy.
So he tramps around by himself, struggling to find the right energy between the buildings and trees, and praying to the sun for help.
If Only
If only there was more time
If only he hadn’t had a gun
If only she hadn’t said what she did
If only he’d walked away
If only they’d never met
If only they could do it all over again
If only it hadn’t begun

How to Research a Location You Haven’t Actually Been To
I enjoy blogs like this, that suggest ideas for how to do things, and stimulate your thinking about how to accomplish things like researching locations.
I’m a fan of Google Earth, myself, but I’ve found that Instagram and other social media sites are excellent resources. One of my most successful approaches is to Google a location and look at the images. After finding some that intrigue me, I search back to the source. There’s often a blog post or article attached with more details and explanation.
Fitbit Tip
When your Fitbit reminds you to get up and walk around, don’t use the time to go to the kitchen and get a snack.
