Let me live in my house by the side of the road
and be a friend to man
Sam Walter Foss
Thoreau kept two chairs in his home at Walden Pond
One for himself and one for a guest
It is not the lack of furnishings that catches the mind
It is his thought to make room in his day for another
To leave the door ajar to the footsteps of passersbys
Today-
"live by the side of the road" in your mind
and make a little room for others
That is worth more to most people than you will ever know
And that is poetiquejustis
The heartfelt counsel of a friend
is as sweet as perfume and incense.Proverbs 27:9
