Fountain Pen Wisdom
This is a new feature on my blog. Look for it about once a week. I chose the title because it conjures up a slower time when it took time to write a note or compose a letter; each word carefully selected and meticulously written.
Look for the silver lining even when the world
hands you rust and corrosion.
Hold out your hand and wait expectantly
for the gift of another’s touch.
Live with light. It will guide your way
and inspire others who are cloaked in darkness.

I really like this feature. It's good to be reminded to reach for the very best word. . . slowly. A "fountain pen" thought will hopefully help me take a deeper breath in that moment of enjoyable reading. xoxoxoxo
ReplyDeleteTaking a deep breath and enjoying things slowly - wonderful things to strive for. Thanks for your comment.
