“It was only a sunny smile,
and little it cost in the giving,
but like morning light
it scattered the night
and made the day
worth living.”
-F. Scott Fitzgerald

When my students have success, it gives me a smile. Yesterday one of my students passed the U.S. citizenship test and is now a citizen. That gave me a smile.
Wonderful to hear!
Your – graciously – liking a post which . . . I wasn’t sure lived up to the radical life of love I long to know in my experience. I wasn’t sure it did – until I perused your blog and realized that you would never endorse anything which wasn’t at least making a good faith effort to love. Thank you, really.
My pleasure. Keep up the great blogging! 🙂
Knowing I am loved by God, folks and also that I have the privilege to make impact in my sphere and yes – nature!!!
Beautiful!
A cup of coffee and my gratitude routine, as I use to wake up sad often but not in a few months and that make me super happy!
Wonderful to hear! 🙂
A nice smile can make my day!
