Love him or hate him, this is one of the most beautiful openings to an album I have ever heard.

Fear and Fridays Poem - Zach Bryan

"I'd say I've seen some beautiful days, I've walked countless coastlines, awoken on mountain tops, I have seen death and birth and kissed good lips.

I don't need a music machine telling me what a good story is, and matter of fact I've never asked nothing from nobody.

I've taken my motorbike down the Pacific 101 and I have stood atop the Empire State Building with my father.
I've ridden in fear, although, I was afraid every single time.

I've learned that every waking moment is enough and excess never leads to better things, it only piles and piles atop the things that are already abundantly in front of you like breathing and chasing and slow dancing and love making, fighting and laughing.

I am unhinged, unworthy, and distasteful to mostly everyone l meet, however I am loyal to a fault to anyone I find kindness in.

I do not and will not fear tomorrow because I feel as though today has been enough, and I got no hate in my heart for anything, anywhere, or anyone.

And I think fear and Fridays got an awful lot in common, they're overdone and glorified and always leave you wantin. Yeah, I think fear and Fridays got an awful lot in common, they're overdone and glorified and they always leave you wantin'."

Sailing Boats, Morning - Hiroshi Yoshida

so good I haven't got the words for it. I guess it's sublime? Transcendent? I look at the water and I can't believe it, the sun through the fog, I can't believe it. It's everything good about Reality, I think "Heaven" would be a collection of moments like this.

Maybe I'm so wound up in my day-to-day that seeing this transports me to a time when I was younger and my life was simpler.

'One day Ajahn Chah held up a beautiful Chinese tea cup, "To me this cup is already broken. Because I know its fate, I can enjoy it fully here and now. And when it’s gone, it’s gone." When we understand the truth of uncertainty and relax, we become free.'

—Jack Kornfield, _The Wise Heart_, p. 371

Impermanence, 2018

A permanent birch plywood installation at Fortaleza de Sagres. Impermanence explores solidity and transformation, tracing a cube’s metamorphosis into a bird—earth to ephemeral freedom. Inspired by Sagres, where land meets sea and sky, the forms spiral upward, symbolizing the pull toward the unknown.
