The word of wisdom

I don't know where you get your wisdom.
I found an endless source of wisdom in comics by Bill Watterson "Calvin and Hobbes". 
This is what I got so far, take a look.

Why isn't my life like a situation comedy?


Why aren't my conversations peppered with spontaneous witticisms?
Why don't my friends demonstrate heartfelt
concern for my well being when I have problems?
Why don't I have a bunch of friends with nothing better to do
but drop by and instigate wacky adventures?
I gotta get my life some writers.
God put me on this earth to accomplish a certain number of things.
Right now I am so far behind that I will never die.

-You can't just turn on creativity like a faucet. You have to be in the right mood.
- What mood is that?
- Last minute panic.

Crusade # 48

This month we have to document any event, trip or outing in our journals.

We already wrote about Pilot Point in our blog, but probably will mention it many times, as it has special charm which keeps us coming back and discover something new every time.
Jay’s café/museum is located in the historical center of the city. Every time I enter it my heart stops – the café is full floor to ceiling with objects relevant to historical life in Pilot Point. You may find anything from circus posters to spice boxes common to the kitchen of 100 years ago, wonderful pieces of glass, books, cloths, and photo albums from decades past all collected by Jay, the owner, this makes every visit a voyage of historical exploration. The best part is that you can touch everything, take pictures and even purchase some of these treasures. The spread in my journal is a collage made from papers acquired in Jay’s café.
