Thought for the day

Inspiration can strike anywhere, especially when you are present in the moment & your mind isn't drifting, or as talking as incessantly loudly as usual anyway.

I was in Starbucks last week, writing & drinking tea, when I glanced at the side of the cup & saw The Way I See It #141. I liked it so much I tore it off the side of the cup (once I'd finished my yummy chai tea, naturally) & put it inside my journal, and I've just found it & really wanted to share it:

I used to feel so alone in the city. All those gazilions of people and then me, on the outside. Because how do you meet a new person? I was very stumped by this for many years. And then I realized, you just say "Hi." They may ignore you. Or you may marry them. And that possibility is worth that one word.
