  • I'm currently doing an internship with this energy-based company and god this has only reinforced my love for the arts.

    I feel like the difference between the arts and the science/tech fields is that... the latter is like food that is made to purely serve the function of food: providing nutrition. It's bland, colourless, uninteresting and sticks so strictly to what it has to do that cooking is a task and not a joy.

    Meanwhile the arts take those same components and go a little further. Instead of just sticking to the role, they try to make it better even if it isn't strictly necessary. Add a dash of colours to the food to make it appear interesting. Throw in some flavourful spice that has no nutritive value but improves the taste. Present it elaborately, making it visually appealing even though it doesn't have to be more than grey sludge.


    apologies for the sleep-deprived rant, i just hate technical writing so so so much



I have lived through much, and now I think I have found what is needed for happiness. A quiet secluded life in the country, with the possibility of being useful to people to whom it is easy to do good... then rest, nature, books, music, love for one's neighbor - such is my idea of happiness.
