"Ladeeda" is the title of a post written by a friend and fellow blogger. In this post she talks about taking deep breaths of the frosty cool air of autumn and gazing at the snow covered pines that decorate the mountains... ah! What beautiful words that so delicately paint pictures in my mind. I loved her response to a questionaire from work asking, "If you could live anywhere you wanted to, where would it be?" Her response: "I'd want to live on a vineyard in Italy in a quaint old house and have a view of some glorious mountains in the backround." Ahhh, doesn't that jsut sound like the perfect place? Can't you just imagine the golden glow of the sun setting betweens the mountains?
"We are naturally prouder than peacocks, more groveling than toads, more vile than unclean animals, more envious than serpants, more gluttonous than hogs, more furious than tigers, lazier than tortoises, weaker than reeds, and more capricious than weathercocks." (True Devotion to Mary: St Louis Marie De Montfort pg 49)
"The rung of a ladder was never meant to rest uponm but only to hold a man's foot long enough to enable him to put the other somewhat higher." (Thomas Henry Huxley)
