A quiet secluded life in the country, with the possibility of being useful to people

to whom it is easy to do good, and who are not accustomed to have it done to them;

then work which one hopes may be of some use; then rest, nature, books, music,

love for one’s neighbor-

such is my idea of happiness.

~Leo Tolstoy

there is nothing I need to do today….

inquiry for today~ how do you want to feel today?

take good care dear one…..

Following your own star means isolation, not knowing where to go, having to find out a completely new way for yourself instead of just going on the trodden path everybody else runs along. That’s why there’s always been a tendency in humans to project the uniqueness and the greatness of their own inner self onto outer personalities and become the servants, the devoted servants, admirers, and imitators of outer personalities.

It is much easier to admire a great personality and become a pupil or follower of a guru or a religious prophet, or an admirer of a big, official personality.

That is much easier than following your own star.

~Marie-Louise von Franz
