This week's Quote Theme: 

​Karma

  “If you send out goodness from yourself, or if you share that which is happy or good within you, it will all come back to you multiplied ten thousand times. In the kingdom of love there is no competition; there is no possessiveness or control. The more love you give away, the more love you will have.” 

John O'Donohue, Anam Cara: A Book of Celtic Wisdom

A Recycled Quote of the Week Classic...

When I look at friends and acquaintances, many with perfectly beautiful children and wonderful lives, and see how desperately unhappy or stressed they are about balancing work and family, I think to myself that the solution to many problems is deceptively obvious. We are chasing the wrong things, asking ourselves the wrong questions. It is not, "Can we have it all?" -- with "all" being some kind of undefined marker that shall forever be moved upwards out of reach just a little bit with each new blessing. We should ask instead, "Do we have enough?"

Marie Myung-Ok Lee; "What My Son's Disabilities Taught Me About 'Having It All"

Wishing you ENOUGH, wherever this may find you!

Welcome to the Quote of the Week!  This weeks' quotes were inspired by two perfect summer afternoons!  

___________

“Summer afternoon—summer afternoon; to me those have always been the two most beautiful words in the English language.” 

Henry James

A Recycled Quote of the Week Classic...

The Summer Wind

The summer wind, came blowin' in - from across the sea

It lingered there, so warm and fair - to walk with me

All summer long, we sang a song - and strolled on golden sand

Two sweethearts, and the summer wind

Like painted kites, those days and nights - went flyin' by

The world was new, beneath a blue - umbrella sky

Then softer than, a piper man - one day it called to you

And I lost you, to the summer wind

The autumn wind, and the winter wind - have come and gone

And still the days, those lonely days - go on and on

And guess who sighs his lullabies - through nights that never end

My fickle friend, the summer wind

Original German lyrics by Hans Bradtke

English lyrics by Johnny Mercer

Wishing you a most BEAUTIFUL summer wherever this may find you!

​ALIVE

"To be fully alive, fully human, and completely awake is to be continually thrown out of the nest. To live fully is to be always in no-man's-land, to experience each moment as completely new and fresh. To live is to be willing to die over and over again. ”

Pema Chodron

A Recycled Quote of the Week Classic...

”Do not ask what the world needs.
Instead, ask what makes you come alive.
Because what the world needs is more people who have come alive.”
