The Strange Magnificent Beauty of Opals

The ancient Greeks upheld the opal as a sign of purity and hope. The ancient Romans believed opals kept the wearer safe from harm and called opals cupid paederos, child as beautiful as love.

For thousands of years opals have been regarded as a source of imparting inner beauty and faithfulness to the wearer. For centuries royal families have included opals in crowns and necklaces as a talisman for protection, calling them the “King of Gems”.

Most of the writers I know are weird hybrids. There’s a strong streak of egomania coupled with extreme shyness. Writing’s kind of like exhibitionism in private. And there’s also a strange loneliness, and a desire to have some kind of conversation with people, but not a real great ability to do it in person.

A healthy relationship is one where two independent people just make a deal that they will help make the other person the best version of themselves.

Photo I took of Tori in Vienna, Austria, October 25th, 2011.

Opening chords of Smells Like Teen Spirit, that my friend Dawid requested. Goosebumps.

This is gorgeous.

“I got stuck on the lift with her the other day with the camera operator and if I had to choose somebody to get stuck in the lift with she comes fairly high on the list, because she’s amusing, attractive, and very small.” | Colin Firth on Helena Bonham Carter
