"The best kind of rain, of course, is a cozy rain. This is the kind the anonymous medieval poet makes me remember, the rain that falls on a day when you'd just as soon stay in bed a little longer, write letters or read a good book by the fire, take early tea with hot scones and jam and look out the streaked window with complacency." ~Susan Allen Toth

"People say that what we’re all seeking is a meaning for life. I don’t think that’s what we’re really seeking. I think that what we’re seeking is an experience of being alive, so that our life experiences on the purely physical plane will have resonances without own innermost being and reality, so that we actually feel the rapture of being alive." — Joseph Campbell

Looking back, I have this to regret, that too often when I loved, I did not say so. ~David Grayson

From my friend:

I Stay Focused.

Today I stay centered in and with Universal Goodness.

I know that the goodness that I experience in life is Infinite.

I know that I am an expression of this Infinite Goodness.

I sit back, relax and inhale the majestical Energy that is.

No matter what may be going on "outside" of me, today my focus is "within".

I try my best not to allow outer distractions stray me from my main focus.

When this happens I quickly get back on the beam.

The more I embrace this idea the richer my life becomes.

I love how this Stuff works!

I resonate with this idea right now.

And so it is.
