Guatemala 2018

Poet Mary Oliver says, “ Pay attention. Be astonished. Tell about it.” As best I can, I try to live this way, but while in Guatemala the past ten days, the astonishment goes to a whole new level, as time and time again I experienced my spirit awaken to love expressed generously in the midst of poverty.

Dana Goodman Love a quote on Stephanie Lennox blog post by Kurt Vonnegut: "Do not let the world make you hard. Do not let pain make you hate. Do not let the bitterness steal your sweetness. Take pride that even though the rest of the world may disagree, you still believe it to be a beautiful place."

Such beautiful words to contemplate.
