"Everybody suffers.
If you accept your suffering,
you can understand others
better.
But never forget:
life is sweet."
Steven Colbert's Mother, Lorna
as told by her son
"He's a fine fellow
with but one fault;
He's a terrible scoundrel."
Said of a 19th Century Steam-Ship Company lobbyist
"That which you DO -
that is what you ARE."
Ingrid Bettencourt

Happy First Birthday!
"A truly rich man
is one whose children run into his arms
when his hands are empty."

Visiting old books,
stories, paintings, faces;
seeing wonders in museums,
gems in a shop,
imbibing epic skies
on a blog
or resounding to
a mellifluous brook. . .
All these things
feed me
and you.
We needn't own them-
but may revisit anytime,
They show us new facets
and intimations
as we develop new ones of our own.
Thank YOU for visiting! cloudia
