“If you have that “gut feeling,” listen to it. Don’t dismiss it as nothing. It may save your life.”
― Julie Fairhurst, Women Like Me Community: WHISPERS WITHIN-THE POWER OF WOMEN’S INTUITION

“Up in the thickets and caverns of the mountains, night falls as a thick wool blanket over everything. Mountain dark is sweet. Breezes blow with a clean smell, especially when there’s rain on the way. The forests release an organic smell of life, new sprouts of sassafras and privet, flowering laurel, and the damp layers of leaves and fallen logs, mushrooms sprinkled across their tops like freckles on a young girl’s nose. The trees sway above, their leaves rustling and dancing in the summer, pine needles and the evergreen cedars swishing when it’s cold.”
― Bonnie Blaylock, Light to the Hills

“Once you have read a book you care about, some part of it is always with you.”
