be in love with your life. every minute of it.

i settled in with a cup of coffee this morning.  super strong and dark.  well, actually it was a deep and soulful cup of coffee...

at least that's what the bag said.  i'm a sucker for good marketing...but aren't we all.  i'm not sure what deep and soulful tastes like, but i did really enjoy this.

i messed around for a bit, sewing random scraps of handmade paper to a blank page as i mulled over my week.  there were some bad moments this week, but also some really good moments.  i looked up and there is my sewing pouch.  it says -

Be in love with your life. Every minute of it. - Jack Kerouac

 a powerful statement.  be in love with your life.  the good.  the not so good.  every minute of it.  because life is not perfect, but it is pretty good to be alive.    

 i thought i would share that with you on this fine friday.  it's been a long time and i wanted to say hi...
