Life Links: Today's One-Click Instant Inspirations
For when you need a reminder that the world is a work of art: seeing Rothkos everywhere.
"But for each of us, isn't life about determining our own finish line? This journey has always been about reaching your own other shore no matter what it is, and that dream continues." Endurance swimmer (and Life Lift hero) Diana Nyad gives us a new way to think about so-called failure. The novelist next door: An innovator of Arabic fiction lives in quiet obscurity in Chicago's subsidized housing. Step away from the magnifying mirror! And 4 other things to avoid if you want to feel beautiful. The Life-Lifter: "Kids lead a very private life. And I was a typical child (I think). I was a liar. I was out to protect my parents from hard truths." Whether you're a parent or not, you must read this illuminating interview with children's book author Maurice Sendak.
