“Be grateful to people who make us happy; they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom.”
Marcel Proust

“A tulip doesn’t strive to impress anyone.
It doesn’t struggle to be different than a
rose. It doesn’t have to. It is different.
And there is room in the garden for
every flower.”
Marianne Williamson

I heart John Denver forever.

“I would make my job a work of art. I would like whatever it is that I’m doing – everyone’s experience of me, everyone’s interaction with me, everyone’s discussion, conversation, relationship with me – [to be] an event within which they get to see who they are. I would make of my life a work of art.”

John Denver

“As for how to be more creative more often, sit down and work. Even if junk comes out, sitting down and getting to work is what matters.”
David Horvath

Lovely Lula loves this quote – get into the studio and make, make, make!

description of love from the movie Captain Corelli’s Mandolin:

“Love is a temporary madness. It erupts like an earthquake and then subsides. And when it subsides you have to make a decision. You have to work out whether your roots have become so entwined together that it is inconceivable that you should ever part. Because this is what love is. Love is not breathlessness, it is not excitement, it is not the promulgation of promises of eternal passion. That is just being “in love” which any of us can convince ourselves we are. Love itself is what is left over when being in love has burned away, and this is both an art and a fortunate accident. ”
-St. Augustine
