stained glass

People are like stained-glass windows.
They sparkle and shine when the sun is out,
but when the darkness sets in, their true beauty is revealed
only if there is a light from within.
- Elisabeth Kubler-Ross

Do you shine when it "matters"?

Does any particular person in your life *sparkle* beyond your expectations?

I feel lucky to have quite a few kind friends (old & new) who continually astonish me with their love and generosity.

Stained glass has always captured my eye.

Wooooo, i feel like a womaaaaaaaaaan

"naive-ness"

Appreciate again and again, freshly and naively, the basic goods of life, with awe, pleasure, wonder and even ecstasy, however stale these experiences may have become to others.

"The trouble with talking too fast is you may say something you haven't thought of yet."

-Ann Landers

i talk too fast & too much.

i miss all of my friendly's back in NY, they always let me blab on and on.

i kind of feel bad for my new co-workers and random people working at stores, they have unwittingly become my "best friends", which means they get the pleasure of listening to me babble..... Lucky, lucky them.

How are all of my bloggy friends doing on this lovely Wednesday?

p.s I miss all of the kitties back home too, they would listen to me talk ALLLLL DAY LONG! ;)

perhaps i should spend less time talking & more time thinking & doing.

There's this pesky thing called a "day job" i need to get.
