Leisure

What is this life if, full of care,
We have no time to stand and stare.
No time to stand beneath the boughs
And stare as long as sheep or cows.
No time to see, when woods we pass,
Where squirrels hide their nuts in grass.
No time to see, in broad daylight,
Streams full of stars, like skies at night.
No time to turn at Beauty's glance,
And watch her feet, how they can dance.
No time to wait till her mouth can
Enrich that smile her eyes began.
A poor life this if, full of care,
We have no time to stand and stare.

William Henry Davies

Look to this day!

"Look to this day!

For it is life, the very life of life.

In its brief course lie all the verities

and realities of your existence:

The Bliss of growth;

the glory of action;

the splendor of beauty;

for yesterday is but a dream,

and tomorrow is only a vision;

But today, well lived,

makes every yesterday a dream of happiness,

and every tomorrow a vision of hope.

Look well, therefore, to this day."

'Fire in Our Hearts'

Each of us has a fire in our hearts for something.
It's our goal in life to find it and keep it lit.
