“Hello, sun in my face. Hello you who made the morning and spread it over the fields...Watch, now, how I start the day in happiness, in kindness.”
Mary Oliver

“If you suddenly and unexpectedly feel joy, don’t hesitate. Give in to it. There are plenty of lives and whole towns destroyed or about to be. We are not wise, and not very often kind. And much can never be redeemed. Still life has some possibility left. Perhaps this is its way of fighting back, that sometimes something happened better than all the riches or power in the world. It could be anything, but very likely you notice it in the instant when love begins. Anyway, that’s often the case. Anyway, whatever it is, don’t be afraid of its plenty. Joy is not made to be a crumb. (Don't Hesitate)”
Mary Oliver, Swan: Poems and Prose Poems

“...I’ve discovered that if you want to reach your
true potential, it’s much more effective to ignite a new passion for
life than to dwell on past problems.”
Neil A. Fiore, Awaken Your Strongest Self: Break Free of Stress, Inner Conflict, and Self-Sabotage

Walt Whitman
“You shall no longer take things at second or third hand, not look through the eyes of the dead, nor feed on the spectres in books. You shall not look through my eyes either, nor take things from me, you shall listen to all sides and filter them from yourself.”
Walt Whitman, Song of Myself

“Love yourself. Then forget it.
Then, love the world.”
Mary Oliver, Evidence: Poems
