I'm reading a nature masterpiece written by the late Masanobu Fukuoka called Sowing Seeds in the Desert. I couldn't help but share this next pasage with you: I was so moved by it.

I spent many years of my youth foolishly searching for something I "should" have been doing. Instead, I should have entrusted everything to the flowers blooming in the meadow. Even if people do nothing at all, the grasses and trees and the songbirds will live on.

I have finally learned that, although nature does not reach out to people directly, people can always approach nature and seek salvation that way."

-M. Fukuoka

What do you think? Take a moment. Feel what that does to your heart. Can you relate?

You Are A Circle

"This may sound like a cliché, but remember: If there are no opportunities around you, create them.

Ask yourself:

How can I help them?

How can I surprise them?

How can I create smiles on their faces?"

-excerpt from Guillaume Wolf's

book You Are A Circle

that I am enjoying so much.
