Do you remember this one?

[I am sharing it as a silent tribute in honor of and as hopeful inspiration for a very special woman who has recently had uterine cancer surgery and will soon begin chemotherapy...]

HOPE is the thing with feathers

That perches in the soul,

And sings the tune without the words,

And never stops at all,

[part 1 of XXXII, "Life"]

[Aside:  I've also realized that sharing a quote is an easy way to live up to my goal of one blogpost a day. So, I'm hoping that on days when I can't seem to find the energy and time to post elaborately, I can share one of the many favorite quotes I have collected.  I hope you'll check back frequently, share some of yours, react to the quotes I share.]
