Autumn Quotes
Some autumn quotes that caught my eye this week: “Beguile us in the way you know; Release one leaf at the break of day.” Robert Frost “If autumn is a season of mists and mellow fruitfulness, then October is a month of velvet and champagne and smoke curling into cold air like hope.” Hannah Connolly

All of It
“Fall in love and stay in love. Explode. Don’t intellectualize. Get passionate about ideas. Cram your head full of images… Stay off the internet and all that crap. Read all the great books. Read all the great poetry. See all the great films. Fill your life with metaphors. And then, explode.” Ray Bradbury
Narrowed
I heard this quote recently that is a profound expression of truth: “Love eliminates options.” Andy Figueroa People make choices. Choosing is the most sacred thing we do. Love rules our choices, if we allow it to. And when it does, it eliminates options. I heard someone discussing this phrase in coaching. “How have youContinue reading “Narrowed”
