"The living moment is everything." ~D.H. Lawrence


"Normal day,
let me be aware of the treasure you are.  
Let me learn from you, 
love you, 
bless you 
before you depart.  
Let me not pass you by
in quest 
of some rare 
and perfect 
tomorrow. 
Let me hold you while I may, 
for it may not always be so.  
One day 
I shall dig my nails into the earth, 
or bury my face in the pillow, 
or stretch myself taut, 
or raise my hands to the sky 
and want, 
more than all the world, 
your return." 

~Mary Jean Iron
