Have run into a zillion of late while researching for matierial for the upcoming Prosperity session I am facilitating. Each one is it's own precious gem of wisdom. Some of them really hit home. a good one this morning came out of Sark's "The Bodacious Book of Succulence"- "My life is full of mistakes. They are like pebbles on a good road" by Beatrice Wood. I realized that there was two ways of looking at this statement. One would be that these pebbles are laying around getting hit by tires, kicked up and chipping and cracking windshields resulting in frustration, curses and expense. The other view was of these pebbles joining other pebbles , glued down with the hot tar of love and friendship and tamped down with a huge truck of partnership and acceptance. They are formed and compacted in the long and sturdy road that is life. With each pebble having it's place, we need to realize that this is a one way street. Once we have moved beyond it, there is no real reason why we have to stop, pry the stone from the road to examine it, tarring our fingers in the process. Some times a good life is like a good road. There are lots of pebbles. But if we are lucky, they get mixed with lots of hot tar and molded with steady love and devotion.
It's what I like about good quotes, gives me an opportunity to see my pebbles from a new perspective.
