Today while Nino and I were having lunch outside, a painted lady butterfly came and perched on my hair just long enough to stretch and recall her wings. I have been smiled upon by the gods.

“The basis of all meditation is attention, listening, silent observation, seeing and hearing without being lost in what is seen, what is heard.”

- Jean Klein (via yogachocolatelove)

“Sometimes being a friend means mastering the art of timing. There is a time for silence. A time to let go and allow people to hurl themselves into their own destiny. And a time to prepare to pick up the pieces when it’s all over.” – Gloria Naylor
The first thing I thought when I saw this picture was “that must be a classroom”. I realized that it was a restaurant instead, but I still think classrooms should look like this. Why do we shut children up in ugly places where we would not eat and expect them to learn?

if i knew where
i was going next,
i wouldn't be taking so many
naps,
or reading all these books,
trying to divine my future
in pillowcases
and stitched book bindings,
lost in the small decisions
of each day,
only a little bit numb.

i am the inevitable wanderer,
the girl who always says
goodbye,
but never knows
how to leave.
