A Feeling of Abandonment 

“Here is the tragedy:

when you are the victim of depression,

not only do you feel

utterly helpless and

abandoned by the world,

you also know that very few people

can understand,

or even begin to believe,

that life can be this painful.”

~ Giles Andreae

March to the Beat of a Different Drummer

“Whether things turn out for the better

depends on what we do. 

We ought not spend our time

masterminding the future,

but recognize our marching orders:

to do the best we can

for history and the planet.”

~ Huston Smith

A Whiter Shade of Pale

“I absolutely adore cows. 

They’re the most fascinating,

gentle and beautiful animals. 

Their eyes are so amazing. 

I have ten that live on the land

around my house. 

I love to talk to them. 

There are few things better

than falling asleep in a field

and being woken up

by an inquisitive cow.”

~ Mary Quant

The Landscape of Horses

“I call horses ‘Divine Mirrors’.

They reflect back

the emotions you put in. 

If you put in love,

and respect, and kindness,

and curiosity,

the horse will return that.”

~ Allan Hamilton 

Footsteps of the Mind

“As a single footstep will not make a path on the earth, 

so a single thought will not make a pathway in the mind.

To make a deep physical path, we walk again and again. 

To make a deep mental path, we must think over and over

the kind of thoughts we wish to dominate our lives.”

~ Henry David Thoreau
