You can’t wrap love in a box,
but you can wrap up love in a hug.

Joy is the wild card of life

“Joy is the wild card of life; it supersedes every other formula for success.
If you can find a way to create joy, you can rise beyond all external factors.
If you can play at whatever you are doing, you are the master of your life.”

~~Alan Cohen

and play with it!”

O little souls! as pure as white

O little souls! as pure as white
And crystalline as rays of light 
Direct from heaven, their source divine;
Refracted through the mist of years, 
How red my setting sun appears, 
How lurid looks this soul of mine!

~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

As soon as you decide

As soon as you decide that you are going to be faith filled,
joy filled, peace filled, and filled full,
you are going to have a good day.

I held my breath…..

I held my breath as we do sometimes to stop time 
when something wonderful has touched us …

And what delights can equal those…..

“And what delights can equal those 
That stir the spirit’s inner deeps, 
When one that loves but knows not, reaps
A truth from one that loves and knows?”

#SoftTuesday . . . .To crown my daily lot,

“I do not ask for splendour
To crown my daily lot, 
But this I ask – a kitchen
Where the kettle’s always hot.”
