LIKE A CAT

If there is one spot of sun spilling onto the floor, a cat will find it and soak it up.
~jean asper mcintosh

I have been seeking that spot....looking in even the tiniest of corners.

KINDNESS



Throughout this toilsome world, alas!

Once and only once I pass;

If a kindness I may show,

If a good deed I may do

To a suffering fellow man,

Let me do it while I can.

No delay, for it is plain

I shall not pass this way again.

SIMPLIFY


Simplicity has been my theme this week. I have created a new style of necklaces that fit my mood, and I have been pleased with how "simple" they are.

I've been thinking a lot about what is left behind when something is stripped down....exposed....about what is there when the light shines on something that has been in the shadows for too long. Is there something ugly lingering that seems even more hideous when it's illuminated, or is it a flower that begins to flourish once 'exposed' ?

That is all for now.

DISCOVER

One doesn't discover new lands without consenting to lose sight of the shore for a very long time. ~andre gide
