Who’s watching who?
One of my favorite photos of my amazing little girl. A moment that captures her beauty, curiosity, and love of participating in life. The struggle to foster the innocence and joy of childhood is a theme that often has me scratching my head. Thank you grasshopper.
The More Loving One
by W. H. Auden
Looking up at the stars, I know quite well
That, for all they care, I can go to hell,
But on earth indifference is the least
We have to dread from man or beast.
How should we like it were stars to burn
With a passion for us we could not return?
If equal affection cannot be,
Let the more loving one be me.
Admirer as I think I am
Of stars that do not give a damn,
I cannot, now I see them, say
I missed one terribly all day.
Were all stars to disappear or die,
I should learn to look at an empty sky
And feel its total dark sublime,
Though this might take me a little time

It’s Never Too Late
An amazing story, and thoughtful program highlights it is never too late for Love. The restorative and healing effects of opening your heart is a daily choice. Not an easy one, but ultimately the best one…
“A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another, even as I have loved you, that you also love one another. By this all men will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another.”
