What is not started today
~ Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
is never finished tomorrow.
German – Writer August 28, 1749 – March 22, 1832
Porte Ponderings:
I love starting things, but I’m not so certain I like finishing.
I enjoy planting seeds and watching them germinate. Transplanting them into the garden and caring for them until they bloom and mature.
Similarly, I enjoy planting seeds of ideas and possibilities with my grandchildren. Fishing the the crick for crayfish with a strict catch and release policy.
“No you can’t take them home.”
“They only thrive in the crick and need to live there so you can catch them tomorrow.”
“Yes, learn to catch them, hold them observe them but then put them back.”
“Take nothing but pictures, leave nothing but footprints.”
