Just some thoughts...

Every day, as I write Poetiquejustis, I pray it will be a blessing to someone.
Today, I hope it is you.

Staying Put

  The foolish seek happiness in the distance, the wise grows it under their feet.
- James Oppenheim

Wander and seek



Reach and yearn



Seek the world over


but someday you will learn


That the place you will be happiest
 is the place to which you can return
Theresa of Avila said
All things must come to the soul from its roots
from where it is planted
and that's poetiquejustis
"They will be like a tree planted by the water that sends out its roots by the stream. It does not fear when heat comes; its leaves are always green. 
It has no worries in a year of drought and never fails to bear fruit."
Jeremiah 17:8
