riches

“Ordinary riches can be stolen, real riches cannot. In your soul are infinitely precious things that cannot be taken from you.”

just thinking

On Sunday my sweet, patient home teacher asked me where, once all my family stuff has settled, I would want to live. “If you could be anywhere in the world right now where would you want to be living?”

It’s Monday night and it’s been on my mind constantly and I just don’t know. Part of me wants to move to LA, part of me wants to go back to Utah, part of me wants to go back to the UK, part of me wants to just pick somewhere new and go.

I’m still thinking.

I’ve purchased all these songs so if you like them please support the artists by doing the same. To download just change the “hxxp” to “http” and enjoy!

It’s probably time for me to head over to I Listen to Everything to get some new music ideas. I haven’t gotten anything new in quite awhile.

“If the stars should appear but one night every thousand years how man would marvel and stare.”
Ralph Waldo Emerson

“Ralph Waldo Emerson once asked what we would do if the stars only came out once every thousand years.

No one would sleep that night, of course. The world would create new religions overnight. We would be ecstatic, delirious, made rapturous by the glory of God. Instead, the stars come out every night and we watch television.” – Paul Hawken
