Hello Everyone! I know some of you are waiting on tenterhooks for the next installment of my scripted series on art that influenced me, but sadly it's going to be a while. I was hoping to have that finished before I left for Norway, but- well, Life happened. I am going to try something a little bit different for the next few weeks, and if you folks enjoy it, I'll keep doing it. Instead of my usual scripted content, I'm going to be making little weekly mini-updates about what I'm learning and experiencing at Fosen Folkehøgskole. By the time you all hear this first chinwag, I should be there! I'll be sure to let you folks know all about it. One last thing: If you've got any questions, please send them along, I would love to hear from you! -Strangely

Hello Everyone!

I know some of you are waiting on tenterhooks for the next installment of my scripted series on art that influenced me, but sadly it's going to be a while. I was hoping to have that finished before I left for Norway, but- well, Life happened.

I am going to try something a little bit different for the next few weeks, and if you folks enjoy it, I'll keep doing it. Instead of my usual scripted content, I'm going to be making little weekly mini-updates about what I'm learning and experiencing at Fosen Folkehøgskole. By the time you all hear this first chinwag, I should be there! I'll be sure to let you folks know all about it.

One last thing: If you've got any questions, please send them along, I would love to hear from you!

Confessions, volumes 5 and 6 Jean-Jacques Rousseau "She was more to me than a sister, a mother, a friend, or even than a mistress, and for this very reason she was not a mistress; in a word, I loved her too much to desire her..."More of the amours of the twentysomething Jean-Jacques: here initiated into a strangely compromised manhood by his "maman" and perennial comforter -"Was I happy? No: I felt I know-not-what invincible sadness which empoisoned my happiness, it seemed that I had committed an incest, and two or three times, pressing her eagerly in my arms, I deluged her bosom with my tears. On her part, as she had never sought pleasure, she had not the stings of remorse..."(Introduction by Martin Geeson) Confessions, volumes 5 and 6 by Jean-Jacques Rousseau (1712 - 1778) LibriVox "She was more to me than a sister, a mother, a friend, or even than a mistress, and for this very reason she was not a mistress; in a word, I loved her too much to desire her..."More of the amours of the twentysomething Jean-Jacques: here initiated into a strangely compromised manhood by his "maman" and perennial comforter -"Was I happy?

When she sees a White Rabbit as it runs through the tall grass (looking worriedly at the watch it takes from its waist-coat pocket), she runs after it and drops into a strange dream. The world is full of chatty animals, from a rather stand-offish hookah-smoking caterpillar to the friendly Cheshire Cat which only sometimes goes to the bother of having a body. And everyone seems to be ordering her about ... or telling her to recite poetry! ... and all those verses that she once knew so well seem strangely distorted.In this book and in "Through the Looking Glass", Lewis Carroll affectionately brought together many of the wonderful stories he told to Alice and her sisters on long summer boating trips. (Summary by Peter Yearsley) In My Life In My Life Join Jessie and Cindy in their interviews with friends, friends of friends, friends of friends of friends of friends, and potentially some strangers to find a little more direction in this big mess called life. This one is for the lost, the decision paralyzed, the stagnant, the confused and the ordinary people in this world. We hope that you feel less alone by hearing our stories and that you find the inspiration to do what brings you joy in your life.Questions? Feedback? Contact us at [email protected].
