Nourishing of our soul:
I've been reading the book "An hour to live, and hour to love:
and would like to quote from Richard Carlson
"If I could live my life over, I'd be more loving to you and to everyone else as well - and I'd expect far less in return.  I see now that life is all about love, sharing, compassion, and kindness.  Mother Teresa said 'We cannot do great things on this earth.  We can only do small things with great love'. . . even small things can be great things when our hearts are in the right place"
