Happy Halloween!

I would rather sit on a pumpkin and have it all to myself than be crowded on a velvet cushion.  ~Henry David Thoreau

From the lost notebooks of Hank Willaims

I want to know if you are willing to live, day by day, with the consequence of love. -David Whyte

Solitude

I hold this to be the highest task for a bond between two people: that each protects the solitude of the other. -Rilke

   

"These trees are magnificent, but even more magnificent is the sublime and moving space between them, as though with their growth it too increased.” -Rilke

Waterford, Virginia in October... magical.

Connecting the stories of lives touched by cancer

If you don't know the trees you may be lost in the forest, but if you don't know the stories you may be lost in life.  -Siberian elder

I think that each of us knows someone who has been touched by cancer in their life.  Explore the Facing Cancer Together Digital Quilt... It's a unique way that people who are facing cancer in their life are coming together to share wisdom, celebrate strength, and offer hope.

These individual stories, patch pieces, are connecting to tell a pretty powerful narrative about the impact that cancer has on so many lives. ... and if you are someone who is facing it yourself... share perspective and wisdom.  Have a loved one who is going though it?  Show them that you care by creating a patch of support.  Have you lost someone to this disease?  You're not alone.
