I lost my sense of wonder at a young age. When your sister ruins everything but the tooth fairy for you, BEFORE your third birthday, you begin to see things as they really are, rather than for the magic behind them. Tinkerbell had a harness, and fireflies glow due to a chemical interaction of the enzyme luciferase, [...]

With the topic of death looming in every ones minds these past few days, a friend of mine and I got on the topic of burial or cremation.

This may seem unsympathetic and tacky, considering whats going on with her / him at the moment. But this photo is simply too good to keep under wraps (thanks Lyssie for this nugget of glory). This TIME article claims that:  ”It’s never been a secret that beautiful people get more breaks than everyone else, nor that [...]
