If you want something you've never had

I like this quote from Thomas Jefferson. It tells us to be willing to take action for whatever we want. Sometimes we wish for some things and yet we do not do anything about it. Taking action is very important in achieving our wishes.

The photo shows a man making a purposeful walk along the beach while others are simply lazing around.

when our hearts are conscious of our treasures

This quote from Thornton Wilder tells us that our hearts know and have their own consciousness. It seems that our hearts and not our brain are really the ones that know about our true self. Even St. Exupery talked about seeing with the heart and now Wilder talks about being conscious with the heart.

By the way, Thornton Wilder is an American play write who won three Pulitzer Prizes for a novel and two plays. 
 

The photo I used here is the the flower of the matchstick bromeliad or Aechmea gamosepala.

The photo I used here is a young plant just beginning to face the world and the sun. It looks like it's eager to start a new adventure into the world.
