Clothing for Removing Obstacles: Wearing Soft+Comfy Recycled Plastic Bottles and Ganesh.

good karma in many ways.  but doesn't help blinding neck/shoulder pain...or maybe i'm not believing hard enough?





Fabric: 50% RPET / 50% Organic Cotton - 50% RPET / 50% Organic Cotton – rPET is a fabric developed from recycled plastic bottles; blending rPET with Organic Cotton results in a soft, comfortable knit fabric


Ganesh: Ganesh is the remover of obstacles and the lord of beginnings. 

A journey of a thousand miles begins with...

easy for you to say, Mr. Lao-tzu!

from circa 500 BC to... 
my motivational file cabinet (2011):

 yeah, pas de problème!

then we see a slide into cynicism, boo:

Passion and Patience

from today's business day, nytimes:
 STEVE JOBS, technologist and tastemaker of modern digital culture, described himself as a captain of product design, inspiring his teams of workers, as he once said, to go “beyond what anyone thought possible” and to do “some great work, really great work that will go down in history.”


i like this:  Mr. Jobs even failed well.

mild [mild] optimism

US ADDS 103,000 JOBS !!!
(but don't you dare stop worrying cuz hope is for suckers)
yay...
oh no... war against the machines??

“C.E.O.’s are paid to grow shareholder value,” said. “They are not paid to hire people if demand isn’t there and if they can substitute machines for people. That’s a no-brainer for the people who run companies.”

C A M P I N G

New: i slept near a beautiful enchanted stream, drank the most delicious water, ate the best pasta (spicy), peed outside (with head-lamp), sat by the most aesthetically-pleasing artfully-crafted fire, BREATHED in fresh air and silence, did work online in the CAR by moonlight (hotspot)...
Believe it.



picture does not do it justice.  it was truly beautiful.
