Imagine

Fighting off the mid-day drowsies, I shot out to my favorite coffee shop (Once Over Coffee Bar, naturally). I’m glad I did, because I realized what a gorgeous day it is. It filled me up with passion and love, and got my creativity gushing. When that happens, my mind opens and I’m able to see things more clearly. I realized that it’s not that today is any more gorgeous than yesterday or the day before, but that I’m more open to appreciating it. I notice things that normally go unnoticed, like the blue paint peeling off of an even older building against the stormy sky.

If everybody felt like this at once, just imagine the world we’d live in. No war or fighting, greed or corruption. If we could all become creators and appreciators, all moving forward in our own directions yet connected by a common love for life and the world we live in…

Please tell me I’m not the only person in the world that FEELS code. That I’m not the only person that feels like a powerful piece of code becomes something of its own when given life by people using it. That I’m not the only person that feels like code on a page is design whose aesthetic speaks volumes about its quality. Please tell me I’m not the only person in the world that about once a month thinks they should quit their job(s), pay the bills in advance, and pour themselves for three weeks into a project that they are so passionate about their heart physically reaches out for it.
