"When we try to pick out anything by itself, we find it hitched to everything else in the universe." ~John Muir

"There is nothing 
like returning to a place 
that remains 
unchanged
to find the ways 
in which you 
yourself 
 have altered."

"In these times you have to be an optimist to open your eyes when you awake in the morning." ~Carl Sandburg

Life
is the fire
that burns
and the sun
that gives light.
Life
is the wind
and the rain
and the thunder
in the sky.
Life
is matter
and is earth,
what is and
what is not,
and what beyond
is in
Eternity.

~Seneca
