Do you have doubts about life? Are you unsure if it's worth the trouble? Look at the sky: that is for you. Look at each person's face as you pass on the street: those faces are for you. And the street itself, and the ground under the street and the ball of fire underneath the ground: all these things are for you. They are as much for you as they are for other people. Remember this when you wake up in the morning and think you have nothing. Stand up and face the east. Now praise the sky and praise the light within each person under the sky. It's okay to be unsure. But praise, praise, praise.
Miranda JulyI didn't have any vices before the Internet. There are a lot of cracks in the day, moments where you don't know what to do next, so you have a little hole where you look at your phone. You want something that will mean you're not alone in that moment.
Miranda JulyThat day I carried the dream around like a full glass of water, moving gracefully so I would not lose any of it.
Miranda JulySome people are uncomfortable with silences. Not me. Iโve never cared much for call and response. Sometimes I will think of something to say and then I ask myself: is it worth it? And it just isnโt.
