About Me

"Let your love flow outward through the universe, To its height, its depth, its broad extent, A limitless love, without hatred or enmity. Then as you stand or walk, Sit or lie down, As long as you are awake, Strive for this with a one-pointed mind; Your life will bring heaven to earth." - Sutta Nipata

I'm a librarian's daughter so I love to read and this list could get lengthy. love book recommendations too!

Heroes:

Some quotes from some of my many many heroines and heroes...Do not think that love, in order to be genuine, has to be extraordinary. What we need is to love without getting tired.*In this life we cannot do great things. We can only do small things with great love.- Mother Theresa**Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever has.- Margaret Mead**I base my fashion taste on what doesn't itch.- Gilda Radner**Avoid people who vex you. - Gerard Callahan**You see, when weaving a blanket, an Indian woman leaves a flaw in the weaving of that blanket to let the soul out. -You are unique, and if that is not fulfilled, then something has been lost. - Martha Graham**You were once wild here. Don't let them tame you. - Isadora Duncan Yoga is Mastery of the modifications of the mind.
