Brilliant borrowing Joanne - we all need to take care of self, and care for others and the environment in the process - we need to remember too .... cheers Hilary
Thank you kindly, Joanne. These words have been shared all over the world now. I love that they resonate for so many, and that you're helping spread this beautiful message.
How about this quote, from Peter Yarrow (Peter Paul and Mary) who founded Operation Respect: "...let's stop focusing on the battle that's raging and live the legacy of goodness in our hearts for ourselves, and for our children's sake, and the sake of our future."
Joanne Faries, originally from the Philadelphia area, lives in Texas with her husband Ray. She considers herself fortunate to be able to pursue a writing career after eons in the business world. Joanne enjoys reading and movies, and is the film critic for the Little Paper of San Saba.
At the moment Joanne I am more interested in my own grief. I appreciate many are suffering in the world which is so sad.
