Super Bass

Lined up along a hallway on one of the lower levels are about 10 of these old Bass trunks. They are so beautifully made and also very creepy. They seem like a person could be curled up inside...

Look at Me, Im Crying

This article: Look at me, Im crying is a beautiful insight into a a New York phenomenon. It reminded me of a NY moment that made a real impression on me. It wasnt me who was crying, but a lady on the bench next to me. For a little while I pretended not to notice her subtle sniffles or tear wipes, but then I decided to take off my "mask". I turned to her and said "Are you ok?" and as our eyes met I found myself overwhelmed with emotion. Tears instantly welled up in my eyes as she replied "No thank you. Im alright." We sat there silently for a few minutes more and I thought about how amazing it was that just that brief moment of letting myself connect with another human beingr could have such an effect on me. Sometimes in NY we forget that we are all real people with real lives passing each other anonymously. In that moment I was happy to be reminded. Thanks to Cup of Jo for the article.
