"Despair is a useless way
Oh, for the want of a better background . . .
of connecting with the world.
Oh, for the want of a better angle . . .
Slow down
and
Oh, for the want of a better pod . . .
love what there is.
- William Kittredge, Who Owns the West



William Kittredge, through you, told me what I needed to hear today, what I needed to remember.
ReplyDeleteI know I'm supposed to love what there is, but what there isn't here is those beautiful milkweed pods! I remember them from when I was a kid in Ontario and we used to make little doll pillows with the inside fluffy bits...so soft and silky. Lovely pictures.
