“No matter how hard the world pushes against me, within me, there’s something stronger – something better, pushing right back!” ~ Camus

"The Story of My Heart" 2023 Mary Becker Weiss

In the midst of hate, I found there was, within me, an invincible love.
In the midst of tears, I found there was, within me, an invincible smile.
In the midst of chaos, I found there was, within me, an invincible calm.
I realized, through it all, that…
In the midst of winter, I found there was, within me, an invincible summer.
And that makes me happy. For it says that no matter how hard the world pushes against me, within me, there’s something stronger – something better, pushing right back.” ~ Albert Camus

“One flower has a thousand petals” (a gift from my friend to you)

"First Generation Tulips"

“Don’t go outside to see the flowers,
My friend, don’t bother with that excursion.
Inside your body there are flowers.
One flower has a thousand petals.
That will do for a place to sit.
Sitting there you will have a glimpse of beauty
Inside the body and out of it,
Before the gardens and after gardens.”
~ Kabir
