Now for the hot links.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s \u201cTwenty-Two Poem Hacks\u201d<\/strong> <\/a>by Carmen Gim\u00e9nez Smith<\/strong> at the Poetry Foundation<\/strong><\/a> blog. I am going to print it out and keep it for reference.<\/p>\n

Maybe you will relate to \u201cTen Types of Writers Who Can Go Fuck Themselves\u201d<\/strong> <\/a>by Gabino Iglesias<\/strong> at Clash<\/strong><\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n

I don’t know if I could say writing has saved my life, but I could say it has enhanced my well-being greatly. See what you think of\u00a0 \u201cThe Puzzling Way That Writing Heals the Body\u201d<\/strong><\/a> by Claudia Hammond<\/strong> at BBC Future<\/strong><\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n

One thing that struck me at the exhibit was how the band committed themselves to being The Rolling Stones<\/strong>\u2014no half measures. It made me think I should take more risks in my life; wondering whether I am too content.<\/p>\n

Another thing that occurred to me was that the band has aged but that has not seemed to diminish their star power. This is not always the case when women age. What made me feel better today was reading: \u201cJournalists Accidentally Confuse a 63-Year-Old Teacher With a Fashion Icon and It Ends up Changing Her Life.\u201d<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

How about you? What are you reading? What are you feeling?<\/p>\n

Peace, love, and solace<\/strong><\/p>\n
