What is Essential is Invisible to the Eye

It always puzzles me how some of the best lessons in life still come from a simpler time when I peered under the bed for furry legged monsters (mom!!! you forgot to vacuum under my bed!!) and held my breath to wish upon a “shooting star” (I’ll put $50 on that it was just a plane).  One of the more important traits of people I have observed is just how little we can know of each other. I’m guilty of noticing all too quickly that I gained a little weight, that a coworker needs to buy a new tie, and that my friend needs to fix her lipstick; but it’s not so easy to discern that my coworker is juggling two jobs as a single dad or that my friend is suffering from a broken relationship.

Somehow, it was easier to “see” people when monsters and such were still under my bed.

It makes me wonder if sometimes the best way to analyze, quantify, and understand what truly matters is to listen to an old Fox that visited me with his Little Prince many years ago. #reflection #justanotherthought

You Have a Magic Carpet: Follow Your Passion

True passion knows no limits, no time, and no fear.  And still it waits for you, thinking, ‘one day, truly, she will  fly with me.’    So may your carpet take you to Maine, to Spain, to Santiago’s pyramids, and over the roses of a certain Little Prince. #writewithme #imaginewithme from www.dreamacareer.com

Don’t Dig Up in Doubt What You Planted in Faith

So often throughout the day, we are paralyzed by our own doubts and self-defeating thoughts.  Time to remind ourselves that very often so, nothing great was ever accomplished by doubters, but only by dreamers and believers.

Don’t give up. Continue doing what you love and trust in your abilities to grow what you planted.
