“The beginning of love is to let those we love be perfectly themselves, and not to twist them to fit our own image. Otherwise we love only the reflection of ourselves we find in them.”
Thomas Merton 1915-1968

Everything Florence
Read. Think. Feel. Laugh.
Scroll down the lane. Take what you like and leave the rest. Enjoy!
Goals: If my writing, photos, music, etc, can give you pause for thought, a different perspective, a laugh or moment of peace, then it's all good. With so many creative souls out there, links to other positive thoughts and fun are also my delight to share. Enjoy!
Haiku: Share your own day in the Eastern haiku form of writing.
-first line-5 syllables
-second line-7 syllables
-third line-5 syllables
It's fun/challenge to distill thoughts/your day into a haiku. Add yours to mine.
Be a pebble in the Gratitude Pool: Share your daily gratitude. I find that, noticing one small thing to be grateful for surprises me enough to go on..feeling better. On days where my gratitude might just be, "Can't find any." That's ok too. At least I looked into my gratitude satchel. That counts. Tomorrow I may find some. Reading others helps too. Sharing, ripples positive energy out touching the world.

I so loved this quote of the day. Since you've encouraged me to post my own, here's a couple that I find very inspiring:
"The important thing is this: to be ready at any moment to sacrifice what you are for what you could become." Charles Dubois
"Enlightenment consists not merely in the seeing of luminous shapes and visions, but in making the darkness visible. The latter procedure is more difficult, and therefore, unpopular." Carl Jung
