Tea & Writers

“Have enough courage to trust love one more time and always one more time.”
Thank you for sharing my moment of Zen. Winter is slipping by and Spring is close by, waiting for the earth to awake. I think of Joseph Campbell’s quote as I breathe deeply. “The goal of life is to make your heartbeat match the beat of the universe, to match your nature with Nature.”
But your solitude will be a support and a home for you, even in the midst of very unfamiliar circumstances, and from it you will find all your paths.” Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters to a Young Poet
A message that greeted me at my local grocery store. One word says so much.
Happy New Year! “I come into the peace of wild things who do not tax their lives with forethought of grief...For a time I rest in the grace of the world, and am free.” Wendell Berry
Merry Christmas. Thank you, dear friends for making my day memorable. Looking forward to entering 2021 together. Until then, keep safe and be well.
