I post this every year but it’s worth it to remind myself to plant flowers, in the garden and in my mind and whenever I get a chance, in the hearts of others.


Here is a copy of the original from 2017, with the artist’s name! @geopsych


This, by the Spanish cartoonist José María Nieto, is wonderful:

The source for that New Years cartoon I posted. Thank you, @godsbyanyothername !

"Instead of telling us a thing was “terrible,” describe it so that we’ll be terrified. Don’t say it..."

“Instead of telling us a thing was “terrible,” describe it so that we’ll be terrified. Don’t say it was “delightful”; make us say “delightful” when we’ve read the description. You see, all those words (horrifying, wonderful, hideous, exquisite) are only like saying to your readers, “Please will you do my job for me.””

- C. S. Lewis (via writingdotcoffee)
