Art is choosing what you want to include

My favorite art teacher, Ben Stahl, said that "Nature is an artist but only [a human] can make art."

Remembering more of my life allows me to make greater art of it. There's stuff I don't like, stuff I do, and every day I go through a process of recombining all the elements in ways that feel better and more meaningful to me.

I woke up remembering the feeling of a snow day. That feeling is so good. Like, we're all gonna take a break from this charade we call school, we're gonna hang out, we're probably gonna build a fort and enjoy the warmth and coziness of being inside. Hanging out in that feeling, breathing into it, shapes the way I go about my day.

Editing for good feelings, editing for sensations that feel nice, editing for the best in things -- I like this kind of art.
