Let everything happen to you: beauty and terror
Just keep going. No feeling is final

Rainer Maria Rilke

from the book The Chemistry of Calm by Henry Emmons M.D. - an excellent read

  1. what a great quote. I might write that down and hang it up. I finished FLannery. Come by and see how it ended. Tell the prince my roof needs work. he might like a break from the cool seaside - he can come here and sweat in our lovely humidity, get gnats in his eyes, stings from a variety of flying insects, snakes, spiders...fun!

  2. What chickory also fails to include is naked soaking in the most wonderful, cool stream and fishing. Of course you'd have to come along to her beautiful artist's retreat. It would gladden your soul.

    LOVE that furry face, happy in her chair.
