The Courage
That My Mom HadThe courage that my mother had
Went with her, and is with her still:
Rock from New England quarried;
Now granite in a granite hill.The golden brooch my mother wore
She left behind for me to wear;
I have no thing I treasure more:
Yet, it is something I could spare.Oh, if instead she’d left to me
The thing she took into the grave!—
That courage like a rock, which she
Has no more need of, and I have. ~ Edna St Vincent Millay

Dreams
Hold fast to dreams
For if dreams die
Life is a broken-winged bird
That cannot fly.
Hold fast to dreams
For when dreams go
Life is a barren field
Frozen with snow. ~ Langston Hughes

Important
We hurry through the so-called boring things in order to attend to that which we deem more important, interesting.
Perhaps the final freedom will be a recognition that everything in every moment is “essential” and that nothing at all is “important.” ~ Helen M. Luke
