Beautiful.

Truth. I’ll often close my eyes at a concert, just listening in the dark and wondering if I could live in that moment forever. Bliss.

BriBry is a fantastic youtuber who is using his videos to work through a list of things to do before you die. All of this is to raise awareness and funds for the Ross Nugent Foundation, in honour of BriBry’s friend Ross who passed away from cancer in May 2010. Every video fills me with warm fuzzies.

The song is wonderful regardless, but purchasing the song on iTunes helps to fund his video series. It’s certainly worth the $0.99 to me.

(PS - BriBry also has a 4 song EP available which also helps to fund the series.)

…and everything else will work out fine.

Sometimes the hardest part of being young is not being able to visualize how much is ahead of me. I was thinking this morning: I probably haven’t even met the people who in 2, 3, even 10 years will be most important to me. That blows my mind. That gives me hope.

A lovely thought. Though there are also many people in my life right now that I truly hope I will still know and treasure 2, 3, 10 years in the future.

White Knuckles - OK Go

So serene. OK Go on George Stroumboulopoulos Tonight.

Jian Ghomeshi (of Q) and Les Stroud (Survivorman) on survival, fear of death, and the will to live.

“It’s embracing life. We do these things, because if you don’t I think you’re dying small deaths all the time. In the end, you should be going after what it is that makes you happy. You should be doing something in life that makes you happy. You should be trying to be happy in life. Then you’re truly living.” (11:55)

What Is It About 20-Somethings?

New York Times

They move back in with their parents. They delay beginning careers. Why are so many young people taking so long to grow up?
