I Wish You Enough...



I wish you enough sun to light up your days, enough rain that you appreciate the sun. Enough joy to strengthen your soul, enough pain that you can appreciate life’s small moments of happiness. And enough friends that you can manage a farewell now and then.  from The Red Address Book by Sofia Lundberg. 

Enough is a very powerful word! It’s a funny thing about life, if you start thinking about small things you are grateful for, you suddenly will lose sight of the things you lack.

  1. I have to admit I never had heard of either Sofia Lundberg or Evanthia Reboutsika before your post, Kaya, and had to do a bit of research. I like Reboutsika's music and agree with Lundberg's philosophy about life .... at least from in as much as what I learned through the quote you included. I certainly appreciate and admire Lundberg's lifestyle .... I watched the skydiving video.

    In the context of "enough = as much or as many of something as required," I completely agree with that and would wish the same for anyone and everyone.

    Perhaps there is no creature more beautiful than a butterfly, and I think your photograph of this one is wonderful beyond words.

  3. No he podido escuchar la música, porque voy subida en un tren de vuelta de mis vacaciones. Lo que he podido admirar es tu extraordinaria fotografía. Nunca se ha podido unir tanta belleza en una sola foto.

    Besos

  11. i like the quote. I'm so happy anymore to see the small stuff to be grateful for. I don't need a big house or new car I just need nature and peaceful surroundings, health, good food, family and imagining a world of peace- . I think of all the money I use to spend as a young woman buying "stuff"....
    I gave so much away when we downsized. i actually can't say I lack anything.

  12. Suficiente que gran palabra "He aprendido que estar con aquello que me gusta es suficiente" Walt Whitman. Me encanta esta frase Kaya. Aprendamos a hacer más uso de ella.
    Gracias por esta hermosa entrada.
    Un abrazo.
