zee beginning.

If you were coming in the Fall,
I’d brush the Summer by
With half a smile, and half a spurn,
As Housewives do, a Fly.

If I could see you in a year,
I’d wind the months in balls —
And put them each in seperate Drawers,
For fear the numbers fuse—

If only Centuries, delayed,
I’d count them on my Hand,
Subtracting, till my fingers dropped
Into Van Dieman’s Land.

If certain, when this life was out —
That yours and mine, should be
I’d toss it yonder, like a Rind,
And take Eternity —

But, now, uncertain of the length
Of this, that is between,
It goads me, like the Goblin Bee —
That will not state — its sting.

Emily Dickinson, 1862

Welcome back Lia, I’ve missed you! Good luck on your finals!!! :o)

The Fall Or Rising

And if you look a little closer, you’ll see that if a person believes that life is terrible, they’ll constantly look for proof of this, to confirm their view of the world. They’ll find quotes and situations and events in their life and magnify them a hundred times.

If a person believes that life is wonderful, they’ll look for the corresponding signage and behave in a similar manner to the previous person with their view of the world.

Often, this is the same person on different days of the week.

Ten Tenets of Whole Living

libbylovesnyc:thresca:

1. Happiness is a choice. Make that choice today and every day.

2. Good health isn’t a gift; it’s a habit you cultivate.

3. A healthy, fit body is not enough—true fitness engages the spirit.

4. Think more about what you should eat than what you shouldn’t.

5. Laugh at yourself. You’re funny.

6. Nurture your spirit. It’s your source of strength.

7. Stay connected to the natural world. It will feed your soul.

8. Believe in yourself. Your intuition is rarely wrong.

9. It’s never too late to take the first step toward your aspirations.

10. What you pay attention to will thrive.

My tumblr is only as good as the blogs that give me inspiration.

I desperately wish I could "dress down" tomorrow.

Sunday night means Monday morning is on its way. . .

And I refuse to have “A Case of the Mondays.”
