R.T.L.B.: Love. And Breathe.

From Randall Munroe's xkcd.com

Happy Valentine's Day, all y'all. The bleak mid-winter is passing and dearth in posts soon resolving.

Today's Rule to Live By: R.T.L.B:
Keep breathing. Love helps.


From Mark Tonra's James

My valentines to you:

"Where there is love, there is life."
- Mohandas K. Gandhi

"The true beloveds of this world are in their lover's eyes lilacs opening, ship lights, school bells, a landscape, remembered conversations, friends, a child's Sunday, lost voices, one's favorite suit, autumn and all seasons, memory, yes, it being the earth and water of existence, memory."
- Truman Capote, Other Voices, Other Rooms, 1948

"The world is too dangerous for anything but truth and too small for anything but love."
- William Sloane Coffin

And as ever, R.L., you're paramount in my thoughts today, and my heart is with CarolinaMom.

I think "remembered conversations" and "yes" are my favorites : )

Been thinking much of you lately--hope things are getting less vivid.
