Expose yourself to art

One moment you’re young and carefree; next you’re just happy that your grocery pickup order had no stockouts or substitutions.

At some point during the Dark Years, I realized that I had lost my sense of wonder. I came to see that wonder does not abide companionably alongside outrage. My (well-deserved) outrage had cost me my sense of wonder, and I was devastated. It has gradually returned, and I realized today that what I’m experiencing here is the full-on return of wonder. I’m absolutely reveling in it every day when I see and share art and photos and good-natured humor and community. Just wow. #Mastodon

I used to think that I could never lose anyone if I photographed them enough. In fact, my pictures show me how much I’ve lost - Nan Goldin
