on the island depends,
curiously enough, on the
direction of the wind.”

quote
The Earth Delights in You

delights to feel
your bare feet
and the winds long
to play with your hair.”

of spreading light:
to be the candle or
the mirror that reflects it.”

Never let it rest.

And your better is best.”

How Glorious a Greeting

like an old friend
who has shared our morning days,
no greeting like his welcome,
no homage like his praise.”

“Whether one believes in a religion or not,
and whether one believes
in rebirth or not,
there isn’t anyone who doesn’t
appreciate kindness and compassion.”
~ Dalai Lama
Great Art is Inspired by Love
“I love that Monet, Picasso, Van Gogh,
and Jesus all said…
that Love is really the driving principle
of the creative art. In fact,
they would say that great art
is always inspired by Love.”
~ Erwin McManus
Shadows in the Sun
“Most people think that shadows
follow, precede, or surround
beings or objects.
The truth is that they also
surround words, ideas, desires,
deeds, impulses, and memories.”
