Now Then Whenever

Now Then Whenever - Inspire

So taking the lead from the editor of my favourite magazine...I am pondering these questions for the end of the year....

At the close of every year, I like to take a moment to review the past 365 days in terms of achievements. Not big things like winning a Nobel Prize or getting married, but the smaller gains in life such as how many times I managed to visit the theatre, how many books I made time to read, or new films I saw. Did I travel somewhere unfamiliar, whether within the UK or further afield? Did I cook new dishes, improve my vocabulary or enrich my general knowledge with intriguing exhibitions, talks or conferences? Did I meet new people who expanded my horizons? For, I find, these are the mini milestones that add up to a feeling of a year fully experienced and truly well lived.
It’s too easy to focus only on the attainment of lofty goals, which can leave you feeling like you’ve fallen rather short in life. Whereas, with a ‘baby-steps’ assessment of a year gone by, I can reassure myself that time has passed profitably, rather than just passed. In my opinion, those big life strides are better viewed in retrospect, and in five-year chunks, using the round markers of age as your guide. In other words, are you roughly where you thought you wanted to be at 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50 and so on? If not, rather than defaulting to sob, sulk or blame, is it possible to reason why? Did you take a deliberate detour, or have you gone astray? More importantly, can you course-correct to the path that leads where you want to be before the next half decade snaps at your heels?

So if you are feeling like you need a little lift after the Christmas festivities, check out Cameron Diaz's NY apartment. It was designed by Kelly Wearstler.

This That Whatever

This That Whatever - Art

Obviously things change, because one time it is there and the other not. So I found Gallery Aloft and really like the exhibit it had showing. Alas the gallery is not longer there. But I did manage to find the artist that caught my eye. So am booking marking Suey McEnnally for "someday".

Or then this is this artist...
