“Try to learn to breathe deeply, really to taste food when you eat, and when you sleep, really to sleep. Try as much as possible to be wholly alive with all your might, and when you laugh, laugh like hell. And when you get angry, get good and angry. Try to be alive. You will be dead soon enough.”

“This is the pleasure of wood: that it warms you so many times over. First when you fell it, then when you cart it back to the woodpile and again when you saw it into logs. Then it warms you again as you cart it and stack the woodshed to the roof with willow and ash, and again as you barrow it to the hearth. Then, at last, the final warming in front of the fire, the climax and the finale of the whole exercise, the sum of so much work, so many hours lost in thought.”
—Roger Deakin (via bestmadeco)
