Bloom where you are planted. This is the thought that has been weaving its way in and out of my mind for the past week. Summertime makes me restless. People are in and out town. I am in and out of town. Routines are thrown out the window. It makes me miss home. And then [...]

I’ll meet You in the field
Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing, there is a field. I'll meet you there. When the soul lies down in that grass, the world is too full to talk about. Ideas, language, even the phrase "each other" doesn't make any sense. -Rumi Let your light shine! Amy Save Save Save
