Change
You can’t go back and change the beginning but you can start where you are and change the ending!
—C.S. Lewis
Say “yes” to words
“I am by nature a dealer in words, and words are the most powerful drug known to humanity.” -Rudyard Kipling
Words can heal the soul or break the spirit…choose wisely.
Breathing
“She reads books as one would breathe air, to fill up and LIVE.”
-Annie Dillard
Art
“Every work of art has its necessity; find out your very own. Ask yourself if you would do it if nobody would ever see it, if you would never be compensated for it, if nobody ever wanted it. If you come to a clear yes in spite of it, then go ahead and don’t doubt it anymore.” -Ernst Haas
Reading
“Reading…is an act of resistance in a landscape of distraction.”
– David L. Ulin, The Lost Art of Reading
Reading is a healthy escape from the routine and free travel to many places you may never otherwise visit. Take time to read a book…it’s good for you!
