21 October 1857

Is not the poet bound to write his own biography? Is there any other work for him but a good journal? We do not wish to know how his imaginary hero, but how he, the actual hero, lived from day to day. -- Henry David Thoreau

Some may find a task to be grueling, burdensome, and outright unpleasant, but dispositions change. Our work as creatives is never over, our minds taut with the fantastic, endless imaginations, boxed out by our livelihoods and occupations. Scribing daily is but the only way to preserve one’s thoughts, the same way eating daily maintains one’s health.

Exercise in this everyday life!
