Thursday, April 29 is Poem in Your Pocket Day. Here’s the one I’ll be carrying:

‘Tis a gift to be simple,
‘Tis a gift to be free,
‘Tis a gift to come down
Where we ought to be
And when we find ourselves
In the place that’s right
‘Twill be in the valley
Of love and delight.

–Nineteenth-Century Shaker Hymn

I came across this site this weekend and thought you might enjoy. Founder Mike Dooley says “Thoughts Become Things – choose the good ones!” Members believe that LIFE is the ultimate adventure because in the jungles of time and space our thoughts become things and dreams do come true!
