A CUP OF BLESSING

Summertime Soulmates, Jamestown, NC

“Never lose an opportunity of seeing anything that is beautiful;
 for beauty is God's handwriting—a wayside sacrament.
 Welcome it in every fair face, in every fair sky, in every fair flower,
 and thank God for it as a cup of blessing.”
 —Ralph Waldo Emerson

“A soulmate is someone to whom we feel profoundly connected,
as though the communicating and communing that take place
between us were not the product of intentional efforts,
but rather a divine grace.”
—Thomas Moore
