Looking together in the same direction.

Looking together in the same direction.
Sea otters hold hands while they sleep so they don't drift apart.

by my favorite poet, Mary Oliver

"Instructions for living a life.

Pay attention.

Be astonished.

Tell about it."

The conventional view serves to protect us from the painful job of thinking. ~ John Kenneth Galbraith




 Nothing living should ever be treated with contempt. Whatever it is that lives, a man, a tree, or a bird, should be touched gently, because the time is short. Civilization is another word for respect for life.. ~Elizabeth Goudge 






The value of a sentient life is not measured in its utility to others, but in its immense, irreplaceable value to the being whose life it is. ~Joanna Lucas 




At what age did you lose your compassion?
