The great affair, the love affair with life, is to live as variously as possible, to groom one’s curiosity like a high-spirited thoroughbred, climb aboard, and gallop over the thick, sun-struck hills every day.

Where there is no risk, the emotional terrain is flat and unyielding, and, despite all its dimensions, valleys, pinnacles, and detours, life will seem to have none of its magnificent geography, only a length.

It began in mystery, and it will end in mystery, but what a savage and beautiful country lies in between.

~Diane Ackerman

dig in deep now….

inquiry for today~ maybe the richness of this hour can hold our weariness…..

this long drawn out affair

We just want the world

to love the little monsters that we are.

~Atticus
