make new art

This week I have a few quotes that can act as invitations to reflect on the last year and look forward to the next...

 

"The horizon leans forward,

offering you space

to place

new steps of change."

― Maya Angelou

 

"I have the opportunity,

once more to right some wrongs,

to pray for peace,

to plant some trees,

and sing more joyful songs." 

― William Arthur Ward

 

"Twenty years from now

you will be more disappointed

by the things that you didn't do

than by the ones you did do.

So throw off the bowlines.

Sail away from the safe harbor.

Catch the trade winds in your sails.

Explore.

Dream.

Discover." 

― Mark Twain

 

“And you?

When

will you begin that

long journey

into yourself?” 

― Rumi

 

“Maybe this year,

to balance the list,

we ought to walk through the rooms of our lives

…not looking for flaws,

but for potential.”

― Ellen Goodman

 

All my best, and a peaceful new year to you and your loved ones,

Saiyyidah
