Mary Oliver awesomeness

One must work with creative powers -- for not to work with is to work against. Mary Oliver

I rediscovered some old notes of mine, quotes and poem snippets of Mary Oliver. Directly meaningful to my days yet, here are a few to share.

Enjoy. Absorb.

Things are holy first

and useful second.

I simply do not distinguish between work and play.

I believe in kindness.

Also in mischief.

And then there’s this nugget. I encourage you to also to unveil your own version:

Bending time

So much to do, how will we ever get to it all? There’s not enough time in the minutes, the seconds, the hours, the days… So much to do, so little time.

Maybe it’s realizing that the only thing we actually have in common with that longtime friend is… fourth grade. Perhaps rather than continuing to garden, frequenting the farmers’ market sounds like a welcome relief. Or it might look like the moments of solitude we craved now just feel empty.

Pardon me, do you have the time?

It’s never too early to dream.

It’s never too late to start.

The key is to begin. Now.

How does this change your day?

Now look what you’ve started! (Good for you!)

Me, too. When we meet on the road we will recognize each other, and wave.
