Simple Sunday #7
Posted on October 12th, 2008 in Simple Living
This week’s quote comes to me from reader Kale, and it’s one of my personal favorites of all that I’ve come across. There’s not much to add or ask about this one, so please, simply enjoy:
Fear less, hope more;
eat less, chew more;
whine less, breathe more;
talk less, say more;
love more, and all good things will be yours.-Swedish proverb

Evelyn: Thanks!
