Introverts aren’t chasing attention or trying to impress anyone. They just want a calm, peaceful life and the space to do their own thing. Not everything meaningful has to be loud

Very nice to see an exhibition on Ellis Court in the National Museum. My great-granny (in the picture my mam is holding) lived there, amongst the first Corporation blocks of public housing. It’s great to see that story told and be reminded why public housing is so important.

Book number seven is here and very pretty! This one is a new departure for me. It ranges widely across music, galleries and museums, theatre, film, TV, access, funding and education and helps the general reader understand the heated debates taking place around the arts today. /

Leonard Cohen b otd 1934 - what a voice, what words...and what a face! “Do not be a magician - be magic!” “It is in love that we are made, in love we disappear.” "Dance me to the end of love." But, more soberly: “Reality is one of the possibilities I cannot afford to ignore.”

Do you ever just sit there and overthink every single social interaction from the past year even though nothing actually went wrong?

Sibelius d otd 1957. What a magical, uniquely stirring voice - his music recreates nature... And a fascinating man! "I often conduct an orchestra in my sleep; my orchestras are so huge that the back desks of the violas vanish into the horizon. And everything is so wonderful."
