A quotation from L'Engle

So let us look for beauty and grace, for love and friendship, for that which is creative and birth-giving and soul-stretching. Let us dare to laugh at ourselves, healthy, affirmative laughter. Only when we take ourselves lightly can we take ourselves seriously, so that we are given the courage to say, “Yes! I dare disturb the universe.”

Madeleine L'Engle (1918-2007) American writer
Speech (1983-11-16), “Dare To Be Creative,” Lecture, Library of Congress, Washington, DC

shopper *hangs up* *takes receipt*

me: i'm sorry, I didn't mean to eavesdrop....

I proceeded to tell her what I'd heard from the machine & then from her. First instant, she was perplexed -- then she laughed & said, "I did do that!" I said it was great. She laughed some more, then wished me a good day. I wished her the same, and she walked out of the store smiling.

It's these little moments, y'know?
