So, some days are rough. My brother said to me: "You're to emotion what monotone is to voice." We both started laughing. He has a point, and I don't know what to do about it. I'm naturally intense, but now the intensity is rubbed raw making it all the more intense. Yeehaw. Anyway, I'm struggling for joy.
Some days, I pray, "Throw me a bone." I feel it's a variation on the woman asking for scraps from the table. And, the three bones I've received recently:
The movie Hugo is phenomenal. It's a feel-good movie with some really cool literary devices. It's also nominated for the most Oscars. It's a kids' movie in the same manner Narnia is.
These two quotations:
"Everything that happens to you is your teacher:
The secret is to learn to sit at the feet of your own life and be taught by it.
Everything that happens is either a blessing which is also a lesson,
or a lesson which is also a blessing."
- Polly Berrien Berends, Quaker author
"Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a great battle."
