Let me share a little story with you - my long time friend "M" came to see me yesterday. I like to have flowers in my office, so I had these crysanthemums in a vase. I had just shoved them in there. As we greeted each other the first thing she did while taking off her coat was she began to arrange the flowers.
I was hypnotized. I hadn't even seen how just a small difference made an actual "arrangement" and the entire thing became a little work of art. I was awed. I thought, that's always what I've loved about her. She has an eye and an instinct that I lack. It's something that she does effortlessly as part of who she is.But I see it in her. I guess that's my art. That's anybody's art. To see what others don't see. And to appreciate others' gifts and tell them.

One thing is to know what specie you came with.
Another is to know where and how it should be sown.”

Let's have breakfast to start the day. I'm enjoying some mini-stuffed plain bagels with cream cheese and a cup of iced coffee as a change of pace from my typical banana and oatmeal breakfast. What breakfast do you have today?
