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
“What is really hard and really amazing, is giving up on being perfect and beginning the work of becoming yourself.”

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
