"There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God,

the holy habitation of the Most High.

God is in the midst of her;

she shall not be moved;

God will help her when morning dawns."

(Psalm 46:4-5)

"Advice for former selves: 

revision is necessary.”

Keep it simple.

Drink more water."

"Everything that had happened over the previous few years had made me not brave, but resilient, willing to accept the consequences."

(The Bookseller at the End of the World)

"You have to Create Energy.

Gotta change as we age.

Love to do the things we hate.

Attitude of Gratitude."

Good Enough. You don't need to get it right every time, you know what I mean? A couple wins here & there is Plenty. Trying again is all we can do, & our great, enabling power."

(Tell Me More, Kelly Corrigan)

//

"But blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord,

whose confidence is in him.

They will be like a tree planted by the water

that sends out its roots by the stream.

It does not fear when heat comes;

its leaves are always green.

It has no worries in a year of drought

& never fails to bear fruit."

Jeremiah 17:7-8
