Your Breathing Space for July

“The best things in life are nearest: breath in your nostrils,
light in your eyes, flowers at your feet, duties at your hand,
the path of right just before you.

Then do not grasp at the stars, but do life’s plain,
common work as it comes, certain that daily duties and
daily bread are the sweetest things in life.”

~Robert Louis Stevenson

Breathing Space - April 2008

The biggest thing [Frida] brought into my life was this peacefulness.
I still get passionate about things, but my passion is not so scattered and it’s not needy.
It’s a lot more powerful because it comes with this groundedness and peacefulness.
That it’s about the process, not about the results.”

- Salma Hayek

Breathing Space - Dreams

The greatest achievement was at first and for a time a dream.

 

The oak sleeps in the acorn;

 

the bird waits in the egg;

 

and in the highest vision of the soul a waking angel stirs.

 

Dreams are the seedlings of realities.

~James Allen from As a Man Thinketh

Breathing Space - Heart and ShellsA bell is no bell ’til you ring it,
A song is no song ’til you sing it,
And love in your heart
Wasn’t put there to stay -
Love isn’t love
‘Til you give it away.

~Oscar & Hammerstein, Sound of Music,
“You Are Sixteen (Reprise)”

Breathing Space Jan 08“Another fresh new year is here . . .
Another year to live!
To banish worry, doubt, and fear,
To love and laugh and give!

This bright new year is given me
To live each day with zest . . .
To daily grow and try to be
My highest and my best!

I have the opportunity
Once more to right some wrongs,
To pray for peace, to plant a tree,
And sing more joyful songs!”

- Willliam Arthur Ward
