This is my simple
religion. There is no need for temples; no need for complicated philosophy. Our
own brain, our own heart is our temple; the philosophy is kindness. [Dalai Lama]
It is NOT always the easy thing to ask myself: How Much DO I
Need?! I’ve been marinating in How Much CAN I GET?! for 60 years. Yet lately I
ask this question ALL. THE. TIME. And I even stick around to hear my answer.
Never make your home
in a place. Make a home for yourself inside your own head. You'll find what you
need to furnish it - memory, friends you can trust, love of learning, and other
such things. That way it will go with you wherever you journey. [Tad Williams]
When I moved, came BACK to Arizona, I discovered that I had
done this. I had made my Home “livable and moveable,” the two things I intended
to DO when I left AZ in 2009. At that time I suppose I thought it still needed
to BE a “thing,” yet in those 4 years I spent in the Wee Cottage, I discovered
there was a fully furnished and perfect-for-ME Home Right Inside of ME.
Amazing!!
What we need is more
people who specialize in the impossible. [Theodore Roethke]
That is so exquisitely brilliant!!
I love you, Currie
