Today, one of my favorite professors told me about a great line she heard Grace Paley use this weekend. One of my friends, who lives too far away for a hug, is having a tough week, and is in need of a little reassurance, so I will hug her with words and hope this helps her feel better.
Grace wanted to go on the walking tour to see the studio of one of the artists, but she feared she would not be able to handle the walk. She said, "I feel that I can walk very far, but not very fast."
Applied to life, this is a wonderful thought. Slow down; enjoy the walk; go farther.

I love her. She was a joy!
What a great way to think about things... I know why Brandi pointed everyone in her blog over to here.
Thank you for thinking of me Alicia. You always know what to say... I do feel a lot better. (A good night's sleep does wonders..) But, life is pushing onwards and I am on my way to finding the resolutions I need. Thank you....
