These are little packets of light and you need to plant them early in the year and remember to mark where they were because lots of times they look like weeds in the beginning and it's not until later that you see how beautiful they really are.

There is nothing more I ask of this life than this moment, exactly so. And suddenly forever seems like too short a time.

If there is any secret to this life I live, this is it: the sound of what cannot be seen sings within everything that can & there is nothing more to it than that.

There are things you do because they feel right and they may make no sense and they may make no money and it may be the real reason we are here: to love each other and to eat each other's cooking and say it was good.

I don't blame you for everything, she told me. Just the stuff my friends & I can agree on.

Empty Spaces:After his father died he carried his life more gently & left an empty space for the birds & other creatures.
