I love old poems, ladies who lived in past times. Life was maybe not easier, but people took time to idle sometime, and mostly they took time admiring a sunrise, the flowers opening their hearts, etc. – Marie-Ancolie Romanet #oldsoul
The intellect must not be kept at consistent tension, but diverted by pastimes…. The mind must have relaxation, and will rise stronger and keener after recreation. – Lucius Annaeus Seneca, “On Tranquillity of Mind”
All of us, from time to time, need a plunge into freedom and novelty, after which routine and discipline will seem delightful by contrast. – André Maurois
The music is the message, the message is the music. So thats my little ministry that the Big Man upstairs gave to me – a little ministry called love and happiness. – Al Green
