So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.

Day 12: The Quick and the Dead
Tuesday. 2.12.13 1:08 pm
Today I went for a run again. I ran to a cemetery. Then a guy yelled at me because he thought I was going to jog through the cemetery. To be fair, I was considering jogging through the cemetery when he yelled at me. I really liked the tombstones with pictures of the people who died on them. I thought it was kind of cool to actually be able to see what the people looked like, and, if they were buried with their relatives, what traits ran through the family. There were even a couple that told you how the person died, which I would definitely put on my tombstone and in my obituary unless it was "syphilis" or something. Some people put cute little poems or sayings or something. A lot of people had ceramic flowers, which I thought was kind of against the point of putting flowers on graves.... I think cut flowers on graves are beautiful because they are ephemeral, just like human life.

I've been working all day on my secret paper on my favorite part of Mars. I gave myself until the end of February to finish it, but February is such a short month! Oy! On the plus side I am doing my favorite activity, which is staring at picture of Mars for hours at a time.

Off I go to pizza night at the church!

Maybe I'm missing something, but what would be wrong with jogging through a cemetery? Like, on the paved parts, not over the headstones. That I can understand how it would look bad. I dunno. I like going to cemeteries and looking at all the elaborate or simple stones that people have marking their graves.

weirdest first date ever.
» undisputed on 2013-02-12 09:56:26

then again it wasn't really a date since you kept treating me like i was the little brother you never knew you wanted but secretly were very excited to have in your life, eating your food, showering in your shower, and lamenting the bad weather
» undisputed on 2013-02-12 09:57:49

oh and i remember being struck by how many asian people there were up there.. now that im in boston it's kinda normal but in texas i never saw that many asian folks so that was a culture shock
» undisputed on 2013-02-12 09:58:16

» undisputed on 2013-02-12 09:58:49

Hunh... I always liked them because it meant that someone had been there recently. It kind of makes me feel good that someone might go on visiting someone even after they were gone.
