valscrapbook:

“Human beings are the only animals who have to work, and I think that is the most ridiculous thing in the world. Other animals make their livings by living, but people work like crazy, thinking that they have to in order to stay alive. The bigger the job, the greater the challenge, the more wonderful they think it is. It would be good to give up that way of thinking and live an easy, comfortable life with plenty of free time. I think that the way animals live in the tropics, stepping outside in the morning and evening to see if there is something to eat, and taking a long nap in the afternoon, must be a wonderful life. For human beings, a life of such simplicity would be possible if one worked to produce directly his daily necessities. In such a life, work is not work as people generally think of it, but simply doing what needs to be done.”

Built this trailer yesterday out of a caravan chassis (£40) and 7 pallets (free). The weird shape is based on the stuff I am going to be loading on it.

Freedom

Wed, 06 Feb 2013 09:00:12 +0000

Do you truly want freedom? Do you actually know what freedom is?

Freedom is not having enough money to do whatever you want.
Money is a master, the more you have the bigger a master it is, and you will be a slave to it, protecting it, being cautious at every step.You will be a slave, but a safe and comfortable slave.

If you want freedom, you have to say goodbye to your master, money, and walk the road vulnerably. You will suffer. It will be hard.

Being without a master though is impossible. If it’s not money, it will be your stomach, or envy, or pride, image, fashion. We all have at least one master.

The only master that allows you freedom is Christ. You are not bound to protecting this Master, as this Master needs no protection. You need not be cautious because this master is the least cautious person who ever lived. This master allows you to chase your dreams and helps you where it is possible to help without interrupting your freedom.

This Master requires you to take risks and be free in order to be your truest self, because this Master has only little use for those who are being anybody else.

You will suffer, but you will be free. Do you truly want freedom?

Booktree by Kostas Syrtariotis

“venice-based designer kostas syrtariotis presents ‘booktree’ at milan design week 2011 as part of the kidsroomzoom event. exactly as the name indicates, the shelf takes on the shape of a tree in which its outreaching branches climb the wall, providing space in which to store books and other small items. made from solid wood of either ash, ebony or tineo finishes, the ‘booktree’ can be assembled in 10 minutes and is hung to the wall, supported by only two screws. its overall dimensions measure H12 x L90 x W20 cm.”

Tree book shelf. Awesome.
