Cartwheels on the Oregon Coast & the Tillamook Forest Through My Breath

 “Las mujeres se presentan francas y risueñas,
 comprendiendo muy bien
 que no es 
preciso ser mojigatas para ser virtuosas”

At night too, 
 
she puzzled the mystery of her desperate need of kindness.
As other girls prayed for handsomeness in a lover, 
or for wealth, or for power, or for poetry, she had prayed fervently: 
let him be kind.
— Anaïs Nin, ASpy in the House of Love

An Artful life


Hold fast to dreams


 For if dreams die



  Life is a broken-winged bird



That cannot fly.



Hold fast to dreams



 For when dreams go


 Life is a barren field


 Frozen with snow.

One good thing about music,
when it hits you,
you feel no pain.
