It’s a nice day!
A goal in life…
“The goal of life is to die young — as late as possible!”
— Ashley Montagu
One day or…
One Day or Day One. You Decide.
I have questions…
“The answers are there. You just have to listen.” – The Universe
Every Positive Change…
When is the beginning?
Things I Can Control…
Messenger
My work is loving the world…
there the sunflowers, there the hummingbird—
equal seekers of sweetness.
Here the quickening yeast; there the blue plums.
Here the clam deep in the speckled sand.
Are my boots old? Is my coat torn?
Am I no longer young, and still not half-perfect? Let me
keep my mind on what matters,
which is my work,
which is mostly standing still and learning to be
astonished.
The phoebe, the delphinium.
The sheep in the pasture, and the pasture.
Which is mostly rejoicing, since all the ingredients are here,
which is gratitude, to be given a mind and a heart
and these body-clothes,
a mouth with which to give shouts of joy
to the moth and the wren, to the sleepy dug-up clam,
telling them all, over and over, how it is
that we live forever.
– “Messenger” by Mary Oliver
