Giving

I love humans for how we can be irrational in the name of beauty, truth and love.
I am so grateful to all the people who try, and sometimes succeed, to transcend their brokenness and desperation, and give of themselves to create something good and beautiful.

Such people as Boris Pasternak, author of Doctor Zhivago, which I just finished reading and highly recommend (it's the kind of book that made me want to hide in the hay, among the cows, and steal some time to read more); and the authors of this beautiful illustrated book "Cry Heart but Don't Break", reviewed at brainpickings.org; and many other, unknown people who give of themselves in whichever way they can.

Peace
