Memory Of The Heart

kalman_quote Nothing -- to answer the question above.

I am lucky. 

"Wonderful things happen when your brain is empty," says artist Maira Kalman.

Today I spent the day emptying. Pausing at work's door to let in the arrival of my children.

In a quiet moment, I read that the French call gratitude, "the memory of the heart."

Makes perfect sense.

My heart skips a beat with abundant reminders -- memories of the heart.

With sincere gratitude,

I am lucky.
