want to make a list
1 minute read
I have a list in my mind, growing and growing. My best idea right now is to write everything onto my whiteboard, get a picture of it, then go from there. I have so many thoughts, so many ideas, so many desires. I don't know how to deal with so much.
I'm really keen to make more return.horse comics, I need to finish off the latest iteration. I am about to start reading another essay by Sheila Heti, A Common Seagull
A Common Seagull an essay about death, mourning, the artist Pierre Bonnard, and how to make a vital life out of repetitions and sameness, rather than newness and adventure. Published in December 2019. Delivered at the Tate Modern in Britain in March 2018.
"how to make a vital life out of repetitions and sameness" really appeals to the goals of return.horse, I hope to find inspiration in it. I've written down the tasks for RH on my whiteboard, hoping that externalising them will help me make progress on them.
I am really tired today, I need to remember to get sleep in. It is easy to forget, after what felt like a lifetime away, that my life here requires rythm and rest, and that 8 hours of the day will be carved out for work. I will do what I can to reduce those hours, to learn how to focus on a task and in doing so speed up my work and create more opportunity for other things. I have so many desires.
