I've never read Siddhartha or heard of Paul Buckley.
1. I've heard of the book about the boy and buddha.
2. I now know that I like the work of Paul Buckley.
3. What really compelled me to share this was Paul Buckley's explanation of Siddhartha.
3a. More accurately, it was the realization that two unknowns can use each other as a catalyst to create something deeply identifiable for us to find out about ourselves.

clipped from gdnss.com Paul Buckley: Siddhartha, by Herman Hesse I have a bad tendency to over-explore things; to sometimes think that in order to find the right answer, one needs to look at EVERYTHING. Anything that reminds me that the answer is always nearby…grab it and keep moving…is good for me – visually and personally.

Another Dzurko sighting?

Gotta love Muji

And you have to appreciate the sentiment: multifunction is not the same as multipurpose.

Still getting sparks of delight from true and pure insight. Hope all of you are as well.

clipped from jackcheng.com It’s the simplest manifestation of what a day planner is all about: time on paper. The clocks occupy a small amount of space on the page and rest is completely flexible. You can write in your own dates at the top of each page, and you can treat the rest of the space like a blank page. Here’s are some words from the designer, Wong Kok Kiong: Because of the numerous hours in a day (and various other constraints), the lines in a diary are typically very narrow. They are also usually equally distributed (somewhat). But our information is a hierarchy. Some are more important to us. Some we feel happier about. We want to highlight stuff that’s important to us. We want to write things that are more important in BIGGER sizes. Our lives cannot be so easily and clearly divided into equal parcels. multifunction is not the same as multipurpose.
