A blog of doodles made of words= WordyDoodles.

Sharing inspiration where I find it, from science to fashion to politics to architecture to music.

***Ask anything.*** Especially for those of you looking for straight up honest loving inspiration. Also, ask your political organizing questions. Or your fashion opinion questions. Or whatever's on your mind. I'll answer.

When challenges or obstacles arise for us, we don’t have to get so intimidated; we can say, ‘Yes, it’s an obstacle, but it is not intrinsically bad; it’s not going to destroy me.’ To create a relationship with the obstacle, learn about it, and finally overcome it is going to be a helpful thing to do. It gives us a chance to cultivate wisdom and skillful means. It gives us confidence. We cannot eliminate all of the challenges or obstacles in life—our own or anyone else’s. We can only learn to rise to the occasion and face them.

Check out Jay-Z & Kanye West’s “No Church In The Wild” featured in this new trailer for “The Great Gatsby”.

Must see. 

I’m not even getting into the whole “book is SO much better than the movie” thing. They’re such completely different story telling mechanisms.

But look how many people reblogged this!

i genuinely am paranoid that everyone secretly hates me and thinks i am really really annoying and awful and is pretending to be my friend and it’s all part of some big joke

Almost 50,000 people secretly feel this way too? Maybe now that it’s blogged out there, everyone feels less alone?

Women who wear high heels all the time and then walk without them walk completely differently than women who do not wear heels and they probably increase their risk for a whole host of injuries.
Heels shorten the Achilles tendon and change how your foot orients itself to the ground. That spells trouble once the heels come off, says Gretchen Reynolds. (via nprfreshair)

why I blog

I want to practice writing.

I want to practice putting my voice into the world without apology.

I want to think through difficult problems out loud and with others.

I want to bring together and hear from a community of thinkers and doers who have ideas and comments to share.

I want to be visible in a world where women are often invisible, where children of immigrants are often invisible.

I want to create a space where others are heard and are visible, too.

I want to make people laugh.

I don’t want to be seen as a marketing device.

I don’t want to compete with other bloggers or shut down anyone’s voice.

I don’t want to be a mouthpiece for anyone or anything other than my own true experience.
