Hello, readers. This Wednesday Words post is a delightful quote from Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, a German poet (1749 – 1832). Like me, maybe you’ll think of particular friends or family members as you read it. For years, I’ve had a copy of it stuck in the corner of my vanity mirror.
Living in the midst of a nation that’s in terrible turmoil these days, Goethe’s words bring me much comfort.
“The world is so empty if one thinks only of mountains, rivers & cities; but to know someone who thinks and feels with us, and who, though distant is close to us in spirit, this makes the earth for us an inhabited garden.”
Thanks for reading!
Best wishes from your writer on the wing,
Charlene
