Vagabond Freedom to Explore the World

Vagabond best represents this freedom to explore the world. There’s an indication of a person’s stirring within them to see sights beyond their physical self. Spirit describes the soul within, the mysteries of God, the hauntings of the afterlife, the animation of the wind, the unknown that seems to move us and take our breaths away.

Found that in the "About Me" Section of a blog today. I really like it. 🙂

Walkers like Ships in the Night

"There is a class of walkers who share a certain comaraderie. We are not drunks, tramps, hookers, cops, priests, party-goers or night-shift workers; we are merely outsiders. On the rare occasions when we meet we acknowledge one another with a tiny tilt of the head, or a quick nod; but each of us carries his or her own solitude. We are invisible and cannot be touched." – Sean Stewart

Starting to Write the Home and Garden Newsletter…

Here in this body are the sacred rivers: here are the sun and moon, as well as all the pilgrimage places. I have not encountered another temple as blissful as my own body.

  • Saraha

"I have found, through years of practice, that people garden in order to make something grow; to interact with nature; to share, to find sanctuary, to heal, to honor the earth, to leave a mark. Through gardening, we feel whole as we make our personal work of art upon our land."

  • Julie Moir Messervy, The Inward Garden, 1995, p.19

"I do not understand how anyone can live without one small place of enchantment to turn to."

  • Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings

"Don’t ask yourself what the world needs; ask yourself what makes you come alive. And then go and do that. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive." Harold Whitman

"We do not believe in ourselves until someone reveals that deep inside us is valuable, worth listening to, worthy of our trust, sacred to our touch. Once we believe in ourselves we can risk curiosity, wonder, spontaneous delight or any experience that reveals the human spirit." – E.E. Cummings

Good Character

Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, vision cleared, ambition aspired, and success achieved.
