Emily - The pool cups. Ok just random thought. I ve always thought it's weird to call them cups because
they're heavier and made of glass but they're too silly to be called a glass. Oh well :)
Jeanine - "Balance"
The John Wooden quote on this image says "next to love, balance is the most important thing." I think "life-balance" is, however, an elusive goal. When I was younger I chose to focus on achieving academic and career success. Then I took the time to work on my relationships. I spent this year following my desire to be creative. My choices. As I look toward 2012, I wonder if I can make choices that allow me to blend better...not balance...but blend and connect all aspects of my life. Diane Ackerman is the author of one of my favourite quotes of all time..."I don't want to get to the end of my life and find that I lived just the length of it. I want to have lived the width of it as well." That, I think, is achievable. That is the plan.
i love that quotation, thank you for sharing it. the concept of living in the width of the moment, and of our lives, is really thought provoking and a good thing to consider.
ReplyDeleteyour quote kind of reminds me on a poem called The Dash by Linda Ellis
