Quiet Reflection Sunday

Go placidly amid the noise and the haste,
and remember what peace there may be in silence.

I cannot do everything, but still I can do something.

I will not refuse to do the something I can do.

Helen Keller

The Painters Psalm

  The Painter"s Psalm

Painting is my hobby, I shall want no other.

It maketh me to lay down my mop and broom,

Walk by my dirty dishes to my studio room.

It restoreth my piece of mind

And leadeth me into strange places, subjects to find.

Yea, tho, I am alone with brushes and paints,

I feel no loneliness.

The sight of colors and odor of oils, they comfort me.

I prepare a canvas on my easel and paint

While my dishpan runneth over...

Surely, I will have a rainbow in the gravy at dinner,

And I will dwell in a state of confusion forever.

Julia Bierbaum

Two roads diverged in a wood and I
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

Robert Frost
