What is success?
To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children....to leave the world a better place.....to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded. ~ Ralph Waldo Emmerson

Bruce Combs - REACH BEYOND
Ah, PURE BEAUTY! Beyond words in every positive category I can thinkfeel. So I won't start about the painting now, but I want to thank you for the reprint from Emerson, Natalie. I’ve never cared much to read him -- hey, his contemporaries Whitman, Dickinson, Thoreau -- GOD'S PLENTY is well-placed there. But if I may say it this way, and here, it's such a precious little check-off list for each of us, so long as we don't think a category finished, and cross it off when we check it the first time. But suddenly I felt something such as Lewis Carroll's Alice might have growing shorter or taller, depending on a cookie or a liquid: suddenly my life itself grew, in both directions! Longer before me as I add to it, and purposefully, more and more of these traits. And if life before seemed using itself up too rapidly for what you want. take time now to ponder many things often hurried over, thinking of our own futures as a vague unknown time rather than retrieving, re-experiencing, fuller perhaps, particular and individual experiences and beauty of nature, of art, of living beings, of . . . And again I look with wonder at this reproduction of a reproduction of this wondrous painting on this wonderful computer gadget . . . just having life -- being alive, and AWARE of it. . . and as I scroll up again (how many times?) watching this painting: the hair, the face, lavender petals, and a few green leaves, among my other feelingthoughts, I think of how I may reactfeel differently looking at it tomorrow -- that's what life is! Part of it, anyway. And I am overwhelmed that I can find so much beauty. How much greater my life seems in a few uncounted minutes. How grateful I am. Thank you Natalie! You are so giving, so much, to so many, every day. Peace, etc., Bruce
