Happy Valentine's Day from and ❤️
May you find moments of peace and contentment within yourself, if not love. And may we all offer compassion and kindness to one another on the days that feel hard.
Please enjoy this poem by Mary Oliver. It's rather lovely.
A Voice From I Don’t Know Where
It seems you love this world very much.
“Yes, I said. “This beautiful world.”
And you don’t mind the mind, that keeps you
busy all the time with its dark and bright wonderings?
“No, I’m quite used to it. Busy, busy,
all the time.”
And you don’t mind living with those questions,
I mean the hard ones, that no one can answer?
“Actually, they’re the most interesting.”
And you have a person in your life whose hand
you like to hold?
“Yes, I do.”
It must surely, then, be very happy down there
in your heart.
“Yes,” I said. “It is.”
