Heart's desire






A happy life must be to a great extent a quiet life, for it is only in an atmosphere of quiet that true joy dare live.
Bertrand Russell
(1872-1970)

Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not; remember that what you now have was once among the things you only hoped for.
Epicurus
(340-270BC)

You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream.
C.S. Lewis
(1898-1963)


The heart has reasons that reason cannot know.
Blaise Pascal
(1623-1662)

I met a man from Peru who spoke about as much English as I speak Spanish, and so he kept repeating the one phrase he knew: "Are you happy?"

He has my email address and will randomly send me an email containing only these words, and it never fails to make me smile and remember the most important question!

So Kendalee....are you happy?:)

I like the Russell quote best. I equate happiness to a quiet, simple life: good people, good food, good books, good music, and connecting with nature each day.
