Broken-in Cowboy Boots
“I was a shiny, glittery-type person.
Now I’m a jeans and t-shirt girl,
or I’ll wear sun dresses and cowboy boots
in the summer. But at first I had to
have stylists tell me, ‘That’s ugly.’”
~ Miranda Lambert

“A woodland in full color is
awesome as a forest fire,
in magnitude at least,
but a single tree is like
a dancing tongue of flame
to warm the heart.”
~ Hal Borland
Spontaneous Changes
“Life is a series of natural and
spontaneous changes. Don’t resist
them; that only creates sorrow.

naturally forward in whatever
way they like.”

Awareness Brings Change
“Change your opinions,

change your leaves,
keep intact your roots.”

which will never be reached
by the caravan of thinking.”
