Culture Starved

To truly live one more day, we really only need a few things. Then there are the things we need to thrive. They are slightly less important, but only slightly.

I have been starving. Nothing life threatening (little "L" life) but you could say it's Life threatening. I've been working so hard lately that I've only had time for sleep. I've been culture starved. And the weather has not been great for being outside. Yesterday I had a day off and I refueled myself with both. I went to the U of I MFA show and took in the culture I have been missing. It was fantastic and it refreshed me for going back to work. I don't know if I was in the right mood or just ready for art, but something made the experience even more wonderful than normal. A few times I saw things that nearly brought me to tears, which is not normal for me. I need culture more in my life. We all do.
