Driving by the old state hospital here in Athens (the Ridges) daily really centers the good and the bad in the history of psychiatry. It is also an incredibly beautiful building.

Always amazes me how much the body influences the mind. Turns out my contacts prescription was way too high. I feel so much more relaxed now that I am not constantly squinting.
