like many others before me, i propose that instead the goal is to lose one’s way, and indeed to be prepared to lose more than one’s way. losing, we may agree with elizabeth bishop, is an art, and one “that is not too hard to master / though it may look like a disaster.

j. halberstam, the queer art of failure (via ibik23)

Get it Halberstam.

whofoundwhat:

I may or may not have pulled muscles in my side and shoulder while energetically dancing in the car.

Also there is a mouse in this house that I can hear scratching and it is driving me up the walls.

#Classic winter break

if you didn’t dance you’d be no friend of mine.

but i hope the stars in your shoulder/side/mousehouse all align.
