When you look at it that way, the potential malleability of life is mind-boggling. And yet most of us fool ourselves into an ...

• Experiment: Do a news toxicity test

  
  The M.A.P. Maker — Authority: 420
  Much of how we experience the world comes from the lens through which we view it.

If its weighted towards fear and negativity, well experience more of that. That lens can have a ...

• Scotties & Gardens: How NOT To See Them

  
  Great Scots MacBlog — Authority: 119
  Poet, Stanley Kunitz, says of gardens, “The way to see a garden is by circling it, by walking through it” (The Wild Braid, 2005). That is because art conceals and reveals at the same time. “You don’t see the garden as a whole from any point,” Kunitz argues, “but you begin to know it by making a tour around ...

• Just say no...to saying no

  
  The M.A.P. Maker — Authority: 420
  Im always fascinated when I go to the doctor and they tap my knee to test my reflexes. The doc gives a tap with the little rubber mallet and up bounces my leg like it has a life of its own.

• The Good Life Is Simple As the Art of Crap

  
  Great Scots MacBlog — Authority: 119
