TODAY'S TOUCHSTONE


"Appreciation is a wonderful thing: It makes what is excellent in others belong to us as well."


                                        ~ Voltaire   



Yesterday I went looking for a quote acknowledging that poets, philosophers, and prophets throughout the ages - from all cultures and creeds - have pointed the way to excellent living, success, and well-being by cultivating the gifts within us.  

My intention was - and is - to look at the twelve gifts for the next twelve days with a fresh perspective, deepened appreciation, and a renewed commitment to claim and use each gift. 

Let's begin by appreciating all those who urge us toward being the best we can be and living The Golden Rule. 

Along with looking outward, may we look inward to see and appreciate the excellence in us too. 

And, may we live this day well, aiming to bring it forth.


With beauty,  
Charlene

BEAUTY. May your deeds reflect its depth.
