I came across this quote and knew it would need to be mentioned in my blog. Each line gives me hope. Each line tells me that I need to be with people who lift me up. Each line tells me to get on the path that will keep my spirit alive. My favorite is the last line. What a beautiful way statement. Is there a place, either online or in a book that you find inspiration?
It started the morning I decided to visit Muddy Waters (Coffee House) in Burlington, Vermont. I was told by the locals that if I was looking for a quiet place to write and enjoy a good cup of java, this was the place. I entered into a few different level rooms containing booths, cozy benches and chairs. After ordering an Iced Machiatto, I settled into a nice corner bench adjacent to a bookshelf. It was quiet, the perfect seat to get some reading done. My reason for spending a quiet morning here was to work through a few more chapters in The Artist's Way. (Julia Cameron's ~ Guide to Inspire Artists). Upon looking around, I noticed that there was a small, rolled up piece of paper tucked away in the brick wall behind me. At first, I was not sure whether to take it out and read it, or not. Perhaps I have seen too many "Candid - Punked" like shows, and someone was watching my every move. Pushing these paranoid thoughts aside, I reached over, read it and I was elated...
I love this...thank you so much for sharing it...I love the first line...wish I wrote it!!! blessings, e'layne
