frost in my beard

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Toronto, 2013.01.17

It's now cold enough that cycling to work I get a frosty beard and moustache by the time I'm at the office. And I have to say, the slow-pokes and light-runners with whom I share the cycle lanes are mostly absent.

rand()m quote

It's difficult in times like these: ideals, dreams and cherished hopes rise within us, only to be crushed by grim reality. It's a wonder I haven't abandoned all my ideals, they seem so absurd and impractical. Yet I cling to them because I still believe, in spite of everything, that people are truly good at heart.

—Anne Frank
