“Flow with whatever may happen and let your mind be free. Stay centered by accepting whatever you are doing. This is the ultimate.” -Zhuang Zhou, 4th century BC Chinese philosopher

I feel like I've been going 80 miles an hour today, and it's nice to just watch the shadows stretch across the rug. #armchairphilosophy #5oclocksomewhere #tvtime #break #rug (at Rockford, Illinois) https://www.instagram.com/p/BzMVizdJQsf/?igshid=v1gtrku41hvr

“Abattoir Remorse” • Now on display in Chico State’s ceramics studio (Fall 2017) this piece carries a hidden message on the inside of the mask reading “Men Such As I Shall Look Upon The Murder of Animals As We Now Look Upon The Murder of Men” by Leonardo Da Vinci, a heavy inspiration to Charles Darwin who would write “On the Origin of Species” where he argued tirelessly to bridge the mental gap between humans and nonhuman animals. • The ear tag carries the initials of Peter Singer, an animal rights philosopher who gifted philosophy with his theory of the expanding circle, and the numbers “06”, which signifies the year Upton Sinclair first published his pamphlet on slaughterhouses entitled “The Jungle” • I have thought a lot about what our kin hundreds of years from now will pity us for and the most striking thought is our apathetic attitude towards animals and their treatment for merely dietary needs. I challenge anyone who claims to love animals to think about what it means to love another conscious being and question whether you love merely pets or do indeed love animals. Work to expand your circle to as many sentient creatures as possible and watch as circles encompass you. • This is my first real ceramics piece that I dedicated myself to. I hope it brings you both self-reflection and provokes your mental appetite for who matters. Enjoy. • #ceramics #animals #animal #animalrights #plantbaseddiet #philosophy #art #3D #3Dart #armchairphilosophy #petersinger #animalliberation #animallivesmatter #vegetarian #vegan #vegetariandiet #vegetarianism #speciesism #remorse #slaughterhouse (at California State University, Chico)

Whenever something goes wrong, I like to blame predestination, it makes me feel better. Or is it predestination that also makes me think that? OoOoOoOh

The Signposts of Life and Their Archaeological Curators

We spend our lives defending ourselves to ourselves for those things which we both consider and don’t consider to be part of ourselves, against the idea of what will have been. We hold our destiny, but spend a lifetime wishing this thing or that could be different. Life is a tangle of paths upon which we are constantly making decisions, which way to go, this place or that, based on the signposts…

Autumn Song

this way flees the sparrow, this way speeds the arrow, this way hides the stalker among the trees.

a smattering of footsteps on frozen grass tripping trying to trick the hourglass, it’s the creeper in the trees who will see your last, but he can do nothing with what he sees. just shakes his tears on darkened ground, his light fading in the years, hunting and haunted, playing make believe.

The Hero Is A Cat Who Shows Herself From the Dark On Occasion

heroes are within. the admirable qualities of the other have always been there right along with the rotten ones. it is just the manager hired a flunky to hold the spotlight of your perception on one ingredient and you took it for the entire recipe.
