Quotes, Poems, Phrases, Images

[Guest [in...]]

Hello Folks,

 

I thought it might be nice to have a place to "land" to share inspiration.

 

Whether it's a quote, poem, phrase, or an inspiring image, I hope this will be a place where you feel free to share and

that you will visit often to say a few words to others and to express yourself.     

 

 

Love to all.

 

 

I'll start by sharing a quote:

 

"When you get into a tight place and everything goes against you, till it seems as though you could not hang on a

minute longer, never give up then, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn." ~ Harriet Beecher Stowe

I Carry Your Heart ~E.E. Cummings

 

 

i carry your heart with me(i carry it in

my heart)i am never without it(anywhere

i go you go,my dear; and whatever is done

by only me is your doing,my darling)

i fear

no fate(for you are my fate,my sweet)i want

no world(for beautiful you are my world,my true)

and it's you are whatever a moon has always meant

and whatever a sun will always sing is you

 

here is the deepest secret nobody knows

(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud

and the sky of the sky of a tree called life;which grows

higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide)

and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart

 

i carry your heart(i carry it in my heart)

"Such short little lives our pets have to spend with us, and they spend most of it waiting for us to

come home each day.  It is amazing how much love and laughter they bring into our lives and even

how much closer we become with each other because of them."  ~John Grogan

"Never be in a hurry; do everything quietly and in a calm spirit.  Do not lose your inner peace for anything

whatsoever, even if your whole world seems upset."  ~Saint Francis de Sales

 

 

 

"Be like a duck.  Calm on the surface, but always paddling like the dickens underneath."  ~Michael Caine

 

 

 

"There are some things you learn best in calm, and some in storm."  ~Willa Cather

 

 

 

"Night, the beloved.  Night, when words fade and things come alive.  When the destructive

analysis of day is done, and all that is truly important becomes whole and sound again.

When man reassembles his fragmentary self and grows with the calm of a tree."  ~Antoine de Saint-Exupery

What a lovely idea!    Music would be lovely!  Nothing's complete without music.    right?  right. 

 

Let's find something cozy

[Guest [in...]]

  "Days Like This"   

 

 

Some music to add to the mood...

 

Van Morrison has a way of adding warmth to any setting.

 

 

 

[Guest [in...]]

 

Cyndi singing about being strong ...  if this isn't inspirational, I don't know what is! 

 

 

 

This thread accepts music as part of the experience...

   

 

This is about inspiring one another.  So, let's do it. 

 

Love
