Loving

“We must begin by learning what it means to have enough… to feel gratitude for having been born on a planet so rich in nature and gratitude for the water that makes our life possible. If you open your eyes you will see that the world is full of so much that deserves our gratitude. When you have become the embodiment of gratitude, think about how pure the water that fills your body will be. When this happens, you, yourself will be a beautiful shining crystal of light.”

― Masaru Emoto, Messages from Water, Vol. 1

"I have a child’s memory of Uncle William, a large white haired man, and I have been told of his work in the anti-slavery cause. I think he helped several slaves across the Potomac river. I know he drove one in his carriage, dressed in his wife’s Quaker dress and bonnet. He was a very determined man not afraid of taking risks."

~~~ Caroline Taylor, stories being told in Nest of Abolitionists
