All Things But None

Noah Kalina's Everyday has been up for a long time, Alec came across this piece awhile ago and brought it to my attention. He does that quite a bit in fact. He would call me over to his desk and show me what he'd found! :-)

Anyway, Noah's dedication is inspiring. I don't know if I could do it. I can't even remember to comb my hair everyday. Maybe it's one of those things that you just go on ahead and do it without saying a word, cuz putting it out there sometimes can be a hurdle in itself. There's a Flickr group called 365 Days out there, it's a start. A good friend of mine is doing it, along with her 5mo old baby! Too cute. heh!

I love the piece, I find it very emotional. Although it prolly has a lot to do with Carly's music. Maybe it's a combination of the two. I think it's a perfect accompaniment. I also went to Photo LA this weekend, 3rd year in a row. Wonderful pieces, and Loretta Lux is still one of my favourites. Us humans can produce such beautiful things.

So on my way home tonight, I thought to myself -- What about me? What can I do? What can Robert make that he can be proud of? And whenever I ask myself that very question, in the end, I always conclude that I do not know! People ask me what I'm good at, I can never give them a straight answer. I guess I'm still searching, and in a lot of ways, I feel like I'm just a machine. I go on doing the things that I know how and that I'm comfortable with. A living machine. Reminds me of a song by Yoko Ono, in which she chimes:

Ask a bird why he's flying so high. And he says, "Dunno, I'm just doin' it."

And so am I.
