One of our creative assignments for Making Theater was to list 25 things we find beautiful, in an action. While I didn't quite stick to the idea of an action or impulse, here is my list. I think it says something about me, but I am not sure what.
1.
Drums so loud they hit your entire being
2.
My mom, waking up early to take care of her horse, even in below-zero weather
3.
Trusting friends enough to break down in front of them
4.
A forest trail, overarched by a canopy of fire-colored leaves
5.
Emails that read “I’ll tell you when you get home” instead of the story
6.
Power outages, oil lamps, and candles
7.
Drawings made with permanent markers
8.
Solitary shoes and puzzle pieces on sidewalks
9.
The smell of old books
10.
Crop circles made by lawnmowers
11.
The sleeves of paint arms take on after letting go on a canvas

Ultimate players when their bodies aren’t thinking, just running and catching
13.
Being able to speak to someone without speaking
14.
Marina Abramovic’s artwork/sacrifice
15.
Confident, androgynous dressers
16.
Steeping tea at midnight, steam rising

Tools and scraps scattered around a workshop
18.
The safelights of a darkroom, broken by the exposure of the enlargers
19.
Purple stencils of tattoos
20.
The story of Kali/Kala
21.
The spark right before a match lights
22.
Friends’ cars filled with memories and junk
23.
When you see someone look in the mirror and they realize who they’ve become
24.
Non-traditional colors of duct tape
25.
Chemical stains on clothing from processing film all day
