I have always been a great dreamer. In dreams I have always been more active than in my real life, and these shadows sapped me of my health and energy.

I can never read all the books I want; I can never be all the people I want and live all the lives I want. I can never train myself in all the skills I want. And why do I want? I want to live and feel all the shades, tones and variations of mental and physical experience possible in life. And I am horribly limited.

Work is love made visible. And if you can’t work with love, but only with distaste, it is better that you should leave your work and sit at the gate of the temple and take alms of the people who work with joy

Each evening comes
from a new place. Maybe this is the other life
we were meant to live. It leans against you as
the wind.

Richard Jackson, from “Fear,” in Resonance: Poems (The Ashland Poetry Press, 2010)

I am convinced that most people do not grow up. We find parking spaces and honor our credit cards. We marry and dare to have children and call that growing up. I think what we do is mostly grow old. We carry accumulation of years in our bodies and on our faces, but generally our real selves, the children inside, are still innocent and shy as magnolias. We may act sophisticated and worldly but I believe we feel safest when we go inside ourselves and find home, a place where we belong and maybe the only place we really do.

Maya Angelou, “Home”

See, that’s what the app is perfect for.
