Best Tumblr to document sh*t Sacramentans say

Humans of Sacramento

Like the New York-based original, Humans of New York, this Sacramento-based Tumblr captures life in the 916 with simple yet compelling portraits and concise insights. There's the dreadlocked young man with a somewhat pained expression pining for love: “My girlfriend is in Chicago. I miss her more than I've ever missed anyone in my life. I won't be happy until I get her. But I won't get her until I'm happy.” And the elderly man in the tie-dyed T-shirt musing on his life's mistakes: “I've been homeless. I did fifteen years in Angola prison. I've had two heart attacks and a stroke. If I had the chance to do it all over again, I'd do it exactly the same … but with less emotional conflict.” Or, there's this guy, smoking a cigar: “The kingdom of heaven is real, and it's within you, so spend more time working on your soul and less time focusing on the things of this world.” The picture of Sacramento documented here is at once thoughtful, emotional and totally chill, bro. http://humansofsacramentoca. tumblr.com.
