“…no logical end…” i love that part of this beautiful and profoundly true quote, marie. it is a delicious mystery, the effects of that ripple, how far it travels, how many people will be touched by it. we only need to know that it is the driving force of our interconnectiveness, and that all human experiences, be they sad or happy, joyful or tragic, laughable or not so much, can be affected by even the most humble act of kindness. thank you marie for giving us such a lovely thought to ponder on mindful monday.
p.s. have i missed the latest roundup? i’m having some trouble with internet and some wordpress pages haven’t been loading (including yours!) — and some of my favorite blogs are not showing up in my reader for some reason… Has there been a roundup since the Survivor’s Day Edition? I don’t want to miss one! Thanks, Marie! xx
You haven’t missed a round-up – i have been busy with stuff and haven’t had chance to do one again since last one you mention – thanks for your interest x
". . .and the world cannot be discovered by a journey of miles, no matter how long, but only by a spiritual journey, a journey of one inch, very arduous and humbling and JOYFUL, by which we arrive at the ground at our own feet, and learn to be at home."
Wendell Berry
