”Every morning starts a new page in your story. Make it a great one today.” -Doe Zantamata
Recently I read that kindness and joy are as important to a long life as a good diet. I tend to agree with that. What do you think? I have a friend that just turned 93 and he still seeks joy and adventure. He is a delight to visit with and soon I will invite he and his girlfriend to come for tea.
I am in the midst of re-reading Winter Solstice by Rosamunde Pilcher. It's an oldie, but goodie. I went to the library recently to see if they had it on the shelf, but it wasn't there. I probably could have ordered it at the library, but since I want to share from it I bought it. In June I will be speaking at TeaFestPDX (June 27th) on tea in literature. Winter Solstice takes place in England and has so many references to having tea I thought it was worth a re-read to get me into the spirit of offering tea when a friend stops by. For me, sharing a cup of tea with a friend brings a quiet joy. As the next quote says it does make for a smile, a grin.
Next week I will be seeking joy and a bit of sunshine/warmth by going on an adventure. See you in 2 weeks. Can you guess where I would be going for a bit of sunshine? Some of you are still buried under winter. Stay warm and find a cup of warm tea.
Now there is only one picture here today, but I thought it was a good one. It is on the Main Street of the town I live in and is also the office where my daughter works. I thought it was perfect for a counseling center.
Sending Love,
Marilyn
