Field notes on maintaining whimsy

  1. Lie on the floor and sync with the earth’s quiet operating system.
  2. Stand in sunlight with your eyes closed and imagine you are being slowly “charged.”
  3. Sit on the edge of your bed and stare at nothing like you’re waiting for instructions on what to do next.
  4. Wash your hands like it counts as a small reset.
  5. Lean against a wall and borrow its stillness when yours runs out.
  6. Make morning chai as if you’re being observed by a very patient cat.
  7. Snippets from the movie ship of theseus.
