it is our custom to alter things we buy and make them custom
even though we know because we’ve been warned, it still can be a surprise
something “good enough” is perfect, if it’s what you can achieve right now
the faster we move the more time it takes to stop and enjoy the now
we get so consumed by the big picture that we ignore the details
we can repeat the message over and over yet still not get through
the longer things last the sooner we reach the point where they will vanish
it doesn’t take much to leave your mark, unless you want to make it last
we spend so much time focused on reflection that we lose what is now
the least crowded space in urban life is reserved for our pet machines
