Early Morning Reflections

A   L   O   H   A !

Absolutely Beautiful Morning for a Walk to the Mall

" By health I mean 

the power to live 

a full, adult, living,

 breathing life

 in close contact 

with... the earth 

and the wonders

 thereof - the sea -

 the sun. "

                         Katherine Mansfield

“Given enough time, 

you could convince yourself 

that loneliness was 

something better, 

that it was solitude, 

the ideal condition 

for reflection, 

even a kind of freedom. -

 

 - Once you were 

thus convinced, 

you were foolish to 

open the door 

and let anyone in, 

not all the way in. 

You risked the 

hard-won equilibrium, 

that tranquility 

that you called peace. ” 

                                         Dean Koontz

" The willingness

 to accept responsibility

 for one's own life

 is the source

 from which 

self-respect springs. "

                                   Joan Didion

" Anyone 

who does not believe 

in miracles 

is not a realist. "

                                  Audrey Hepburn
