Mid-Century Modern Homes

Mid-Century Modern

I go in-and-out of architectural flavors, but I'm obsessing over these mid-century modern homes. We went to see this home at an Open House months back in Paddock Hills, but it was pending before we arrived. I'm still looking... Frank Lloyd Wright/Rudy Hermes.... I love you.

My goal is to find beauty in everything, and there's no doubt this is beautiful.

Illuminate
Jakes Bitter (Kramer/Siemer)

Everything dies and then turns back to dirt
One day we'll walk on all those who we loved

Everything dies and then comes back to life

One day we will all illuminate the sky

The earth will explode and send us into space
We'll turn into clouds and form new chemistry
One day we'll glow for a new human race
Looking up at what was once history

Everything dies and then comes back to life

One day we will all illuminate the sky

Everything dies and then turns back to dirt
One day we'll walk on all those who we loved

HIMYM Quote

I thought this was a relevant quote on the challenges of planning, success, business, and self-motivation.

From an episode ("Mosbius Designs") of How I Met Your Mother:

Ted:

What if I don't think of the books?

There's this famous architecture story about this architect who designed this library. It was perfect, but every year the whole thing would sink a couple of inches into the ground.

Eventually, the building was condemned. He forgot to account for the weight of the books...

...By 30, I was going to be annoyingly successful, married to the perfect woman; maybe a kid on the way.

Instead, I'm just some guy sitting in an apartment having a staring contest with his phone and losing.
