The thousandth time he told me - The Boston Globe
My father bequeathed me the knowledge of how to tie a knot and build a campfire. Now that he’s gone, I wonder: Am I teaching my kids enough of what matters?

I'm eternally thankful to my parents for missing the memo that they were supposed to beat my brain into submission. Harness those superpowers, friends. Make glorious art. Make beautiful trouble. 💜

I really love the vibe right now of nerds arriving at a social event and awkwardly dancing their way thru the crowd, trying to blend in, like they're having a great time, when really they're just trying to spot if anyone they already know is there, so they can actually relax and start having fun.
