Love

Love will cause you to become disoriented in the most delightful way.

Enjoy it.   It will last longer if you commit to it and not run from it.

Love of people, pets, places, and even things is natural.  When you are near the end of your life you will look back at all that you loved and you will smile.

Stop Chasing after Gold – There is only a tin of baked beans at the end of the rainbow.

We struggle, we strive, we adventure.  We cross the river and seek our heart’s desire.  But like Dorothy in The Wizard of Oz, there is a part of us that simply wants to come home, home to ourselves, to simplicity.  There was a cartoon in the New Yorker portraying a man running toward the end of the rainbow only to see a pot of baked beans there.  Whenever I think of striving for something I think of that image and realise that it is time to stop, breathe, and remember there’s beauty in the ordinary and its right here.
