“From Dreams” –|– Anthony Satori

— Anais Nin
From Dreams

Pink
“Pink” –|– Anthony Satori
“I believe in pink. I believe that laughing is the best calorie burner. I believe in kissing, kissing a lot. I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong. I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls. I believe that tomorrow is another day and I believe in miracles.”
— Audrey Hepburn
Exuberance
“Exuberance” –|– Anthony Satori
“Joy is the infallible sign of the presence of God.”
— Leon Bloy
On Boughs Too Slight
“On Boughs Too Slight” –|– Anthony Satori
“Be like the bird who, pausing in her flight awhile on boughs too slight, feels them give way beneath her, and yet sings, knowing she hath wings.”
— Victor Hugo
The Sublimity of Nature
“The Sublimity of Nature” –|– Anthony Satori
“She spoke her feelings. ‘Here’s harmony!’ said she; ‘Here’s repose! Here’s what may lift the heart to rapture! When I look out on such a night as this, I feel as if there could be neither wickedness nor sorrow in the world; and there certainly would be less of both if the sublimity of Nature were more attended to, and people were carried more out of themselves by contemplating such a scene.’”
― Jane Austen
Wishing everyone a very Happy New Year! May 2021 bring health, peace, joy and fulfillment into every corner of your life.
Only with the Heart
“On the Water” –|– Anthony Satori
“And now here is my secret, a very simple secret: It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye.”
— Antoine de Saint-Exupery
A Finer Spirit of Hope
“A Finer Spirit of Hope” –|– Anthony Satori
“You are not here merely to make a living. You are here in order to enable the world to live more amply, with greater vision, with a finer spirit of hope and achievement. You are here to enrich the world, and you impoverish yourself if you forget the errand.”
— Woodrow Wilson
Tremulous Ether
“Warm Glow” –|– Anthony Satori
“Love itself can never be defined. Light is something more than the sum of its ingredients — a glowing, dazzling, tremulous ether. And love is something more than all its elements — a palpitating, quivering, sensitive, living thing.”
— Henry Drummond
Transformation
“Flow” –|– Anthony Satori
“I have always believed, and I still believe, that whatever good or bad fortune may come our way we can always give it meaning and transform it into something of value.”
— Hermann Hesse
Heart of the Rose
“Heart of the Rose” –|– Anthony Satori
“Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails.”
— I Corinthians 13:4-7
Whether one is religious or not, in my opinion this stands as one of the most profound and beautiful descriptions of love ever written. It is truly something worthy of our aspiration.
