THOUGHT
“The greatest revolution of our generation is the discovery that human beings, by changing the inner attitudes of their minds, can change the outer aspects of their lives.”
THE GOOD WORD
📖 Selcouth (adjective) — SEL-kooth
❤️ Unfamiliar and rare in a way that's wonderful and strange.
💡 Why it's good: A selcouth little shop tucked down a side street is exactly the kind of find worth slowing down for.
MUSIC
Little Hickory - Sebastian Portillo
