On Writing

 

 

 

Follow Your Bliss

If you follow your bliss, you put yourself on a kind of track that has been there all the while, waiting for you, and the life that you ought to be living is the one you are living. Wherever you are — if you are following your bliss, you are enjoying that refreshment, that life within you, all the time.

~ Joseph Campbell ~

On Writing



I am always thinking in the back of my mind, there’s something always going on back there. I am always working, even if it’s sort of unconsciously, even though I’m carrying on conversations with people and doing other things, somewhere in the back of my mind I’m writing, mulling over. And another part of my mind is reviewing what I’ve done.  ~ T. S. Eliot ~ 

A Writer

 

 

A writer who waits for ideal conditions under which

to work will die without putting a word on paper.

 

~ E. B. White ~

 

 

Belong to the World.

You never intended to be in this world.

But you’re in it all the same.

So why not get started immediately.

I mean, belonging to it.

There is so much to admire, to weep over.

~ Mary Oliver ~

 

Dogs

 



Dudley





Dogs are such agreeable friends;

they ask no questions, they pass no criticisms

 

~ George Eliot ~
