“You are not
a drop in the ocean.
You are the entire ocean
in a drop.”
– Rumi
This is my first musing for the week. Something to contemplate. How we see ourselves, internally and in relation to others, everything that is. Connectedness. Contribution. Harmony. Storms and calmness. Movement. And whatever else these words might mean to us individually.
I hope to continue with these musings on Monday mornings whenever possible, sharing quotes I value, new poems or just simple thoughts I like to reflect upon. And an illustration to go with the train of thought.
Have a wonderful week.
Tiny! I was JUST thinking this very thing over the weekend. How stunned I am that here you are this morning with this post as if you and I had spoken about what I was pondering. How incredible!!! Love, Amy
That’s serendipity! Have a wonderful week, dear Amy!
You as well, Tiny!!! Thank you! Love, Amy
