Beginner's Heart


Yesterday I read a great quote at Ella's Edge : It is from a horoscope site called Free Will Astrology, moderated by Rob Brezsny, who wrote:

"As much as I love beginner's mind, I advocate an additional discipline : cultivating a beginner's heart."

Wild Woman wonders
why it so often takes
until the last stage
of our lives
to regain the
beginner's heart
with which we
started out.

    I so agree with you, Sherry. Your grandson and mine..they have a certain innocence and love life attitude about them. We sometimes lose it along the way but these days I am prone to thinking I am finding it again. Thank You for sharing!
