I felt my lungs inflate with the onrush of scenery-
air, mountains, trees, people. I thought,
“This is what it is to be happy.”
~Sylvia Plath
what is it to be oh so gentle?
inquiry for today~ where is your strength?
The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious.
It is the source of all true art and science.
Those to whom this emotion is a stranger,
who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe,
is as good as dead; their eyes are closed.
~Albert Einstein
