Ever notice that “earth” and “heart” have the same letters? They truly are connected, and you can’t have one without the other. I love the message of this video. Let’s take care of the earth and each other. Happy Earth day!
~ what we know about love we learn from laundry ~
You know you’re in love when you will spend your Saturday doing your fella’s laundry. And you really know you’re in love when you find yourself folding his Yankees shirt. Especially considering how you feel about those damn Yankees. (found this heart of peeling paint on the wall in the laundry room…it’s a sign!) And, [...]
~ marvel-ous !!! ~
“Each second we live is a new and unique moment of the universe, a moment that will never be again. And what do we teach our children? We teach them that two and two make four, and that Paris is the capittal of France. When will we also teach them what they are? We should [...]
~ you grow, girls ~
Today was the kind of day that makes you want to get your hands deep in some fresh dirt. The sun was tinged with an early Spring warmth that made us all a bit giddy. The feisty bluejay who lives next door was in rare form, cracking a big peanut shell on a blooming fig [...]
~ a pablo neruda kind of day ~
The heck with the land-beaver from Pittsburgh…I spotted this little beauty this morning in my hood. And, in San Francisco, if a cherry blossom sees it’s shadow, it’s a good sign. So, bust out the sundresses and the Pablo Neruda, baby…Spring is on it’s way! Every day you play with the light of the universe. [...]
~ goodwill hunting ~
~ Goodwill: An Opening Of The Heart ~ I have always had a weakness for a good thrift shop. I think it’s because I love the thrill of discovering something that has already had some kind of interesting life. Every time I walk into a Goodwill I never know what I’ll find…but I love the [...]
~ you’ll play your heart out, kid! ~
Walking to work this morning, I was jazzed to see many things blooming. First, I saw a tiny cherry blossom peeking shyly out of it’s perch on a high branch. Then I saw crazy lush forrests of fennel sprouting out of just about every sidewalk nook and cranny. And then I was psyched to see [...]
~ in the heart of the sea ~
“Every morning I wake up saying, I’m still alive; a miracle. And so I keep on pushing.” ~ Jacques Cousteau ~ This badass creature is a lion’s mane jellyfish. They are one of the largest sea creatures known to man. They are also one of the oldest species, dating back to dinosaur times. In the open ocean, [...]
~ all dogs go to heaven ~
First of all, let me just say I am a big fan of those emo simpatico moments. You know the ones. We’ve all had them. Say you wake up with this particular edge of sadness that colored your dreams. You can’t quite shake the feeling, and you wonder what it’s all about. Then a photo [...]
~mlk,a heart full of grace~
We think of him as the larger than life Civil Right’s hero with the booming voice and powerful message. But, Martin Luther King, Jr. was a man who loved life…a devoted family man, loving husband, and a man who lived with a true graceful heart. He was a luminous mix of wisdom, passion and charisma, yet [...]
