It seems that each time I visit Terresa Wellborn's blog I am blown away by something she has written, some picture, some great quote or particle of truth or sometimes it's a combination of these. This morning was no exception.
Today it was a quote from the French novelist Gustave Flaubert - "There is not a particle of life which does not bear poetry within it."
This quote tends to give credence to the value of notations in a journal of interesting things that come your way each day. It is from these particles that the gems, the precious molecules of poetic matter come. To let them pass without record surely means many are lost and never committed to use.
Anyway, thanks to Terresa I am reminded the value of notations of some life's small wonders.

Thanks for the compliment. Writing for me tends towards that particle gathering, a sifting, a sorting.
Happy Thanksgiving week, and here's to finding some time to write & reflect as well.
