“Behind every beautiful thing, there’s some kind of pain.”

Quote of the Day
Posted on behalf of Nadia
Lost [is] mostly a state of mind, and this applies as much to all the metaphysical and metaphorical states of being lost as to blundering around in the backcountry. The question then is how to get lost. Never to get lost is not to live, not to know how to get lost brings you to destruction, and somewhere in the terra incognita in between lies a life of discovery.
~Rebecca Solnit
Little Voice, Don’t Quit
“It’s very hard in the beginning to understand that the whole idea is not to beat the other runners. Eventually you learn that the competition is against the little voice inside you that wants you to quit.” ~George Sheehan
Quote of the day…
Mud! Mud! Glorious mud! Nothing quite like it for cooling the blood. So follow me, follow, Down to the hollow, And there let us wallow In glorious mud.
– Bud stage name of Robert Winthrop Flanagan ‘The Hippopotamus’.
