Inner Child

I took this from Instagram, from thinkgrowprosper.  It is a beautifully poignant comment about how we should be living.

thinkgrowprosper“It demonstrates a conflict between a man and a woman as well as the outer and inner expression of human nature. Their inner selves are executed in the form of transparent children, who are holding out their hands through the grating. As it’s getting dark (night falls) the children start to shine. This shining is a symbol of purity and sincerity that brings people together and gives a chance of making up when the dark time arrives.”

A word to the wise

Once again, I post other people’s words.  They are far better at putting pen to paper than I am, yet they resonate so strongly within me I am compelled to share them with my tiny circle of friends.  Be inspired, be motivated, be loved.

Here is the first, from 2005, 11 years ago.

And here is the second.  Most of my friends are familiar with, and perhaps tired of, my fascination and delight in Hamilton.  But Lin-Manuel Miranda is exceptional, in that he so meticulously followed through on one of his life choices.  And here is his 2016 commencement speech.
