If you followed a line along this latitude from the Morton Salt Factory on Great Inagua in the Bahamas through to Leon, Mexico, you’d eventually find yourself on Maui, which is as good a place as any to find yourself. Plus it all begins with a poem.

We dig @lebatardshow.bsky.social & are big fans of @jessicasmetana.bsky.social. If we lived in the States we'd have sent this missing a couple of letters @pittsburghsteeler.bsky.social shirt to her but instead send best wishes for success in NYC & are glad it's only see you less not see you later.

In Arrival, Denis Villeneuve’s 2016 meditative Sci-Fi film, the alien monolithic beings called Heptapods don’t speak in sounds. They communicate by composing an ensō of smoke.

There are ways to make the world better besides buying the person in line behind you coffee & it won’t cost a dime. Next time you’re in line at the store, let someone go ahead of you. The kindness you introduce into the world will be epic.

Like a water drop hitting a pond, the ensō captures an unrepeatable moment, neither perfect nor imperfect - like us. It's freeing to realize we don't need to meet anyone's idea of perfection, we need only be authentically ourselves.

Why not add a new F word to your vocabulary.
Until now, it’s been the holy trinity - FIGHT, FLIGHT or FRIGHT.
Maybe it’s time to experience FLOW.
And start to experience everything differently.
