  • Miracles

    Miracles, in the sense of phenomena we cannot explain, surround us on ever hand: life itself is a miracle. George Bernard Shaw I was told there were wild horses on Vieques Island.

  • Promise of Spring

    I enjoy the spring more than the autumn now. One does, I think, as one gets older. Virginia Woolf I was thinking about spring when I came across this Virginia Woolf quote. Autumn has always been my favorite season, yet I find I am drawn to spring, more and more, as the years pass. Maybe, […]

  • This Isn’t That

    Things are not what they seem, they are not even what they are called. Francisco de Quevedo A couple of weeks ago, I was in line at the grocery store when the woman in front of me had a complete meltdown because she felt what she was buying hadn’t been priced correctly. Everyone around her […]

  • Loss

    Mostly it is loss which teaches us about the worth of things. Arthur Schopenhauer “The angels share or les anges partagent” is a French term that refers to the percent of wine that is lost due to evaporation through the wooden sides of the barrel. The moment I read this expression it resonated with me. […]

  • Little Things

    It has long been an axiom of mine that the little things are infinitely the most important. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle As I was looking through my photos I saw this one, of miniature roses, taken a few years ago. A friend brought the flowers to me from her garden. I remember, I couldn’t stop […]

  • The Times of Your Life

    I grabbed a pile of dust, and holding it up, foolishly asked for as many birthdays as the grains of dust, I forgot to ask that they be years of youth. Ovid I heard this quote from, Metamorphoses by Ovid last week and I have been thinking about it ever since. My twenties were some […]

  • Seize the Moment

    The future is something that everyone reaches at the rate of sixty minutes in an hour, whatever he does, whoever he is. C.S. Lewis Our house is filled with clocks. Antiques, new, big, small, on walls, shelves and chests, time ticks away. No room is without a timepiece. A never ceasing reminder that we cannot […]
