Solitude
“Solitude sometimes is best society.” (Paradise Lost by John Milton)

Yearning for solitude?
Needs vs. Wants
“The greatest wealth is to live content with little.” –Plato

Needs vs. Wants
“Beware the barrenness of a busy life.” –Socrates Prayer, family time and exercise need to be on the schedule!

Slowing down?
Homily for the Baptism of the Lord
Lifting hearts?
“If I can stop one heart from breaking,
I shall not live in vain;
If I can ease one life the aching,
Or cool one pain,
Or help one fainting robin
Unto his nest again,
I shall not live in vain.”
Emily Dickinson
