Quote of the day
“People are fed by the food industry, which pays no attention to health, and are treated by the health industry, which pays no attention to food.”

“Au milieu de l’hiver, j’ai découvert en moi un invincible été.”
(In the depth of winter I finally learned that there was in me an invincible summer. )
– Albert Camus
We so often wait for things to be perfect before starting or even committing to them, but what if we just started with wherever we are at?
How often have we tried resisting an uncomfortable or unpleasant situation, adamantly trying to change or overcome it? How about trying instead to simply accept it and be open to what can be learned from it?
Roald Dahl is my absolute favorite childhood writer. His writing is simple yet contains such profound human truths for children and adults alike.
I love the entire quote this is from:
A person who has good thoughts cannot ever be ugly. You can have a wonky nose and a crooked mouth and a double chin and stick-out teeth, but if you have good thoughts it will shine out of your face like sunbeams and you will always look lovely.
– Roald Dahl
