Happy birthday to [livejournal.com profile] wiccanotwicked! May you have a blessed day, and many, many more!


And a quote for the day:

"Slowly the west reaches for clothes of new colors
which it passes to a row of ancient trees.
You look, and soon these two worlds both leave you,
one part climbs toward heaven, one sinks to earth,...

leaving you (it is impossible to untangle the threads)
your own life, timid and standing high and growing,
so that, sometimes blocked in, sometimes reaching out,
one moment your life is a stone in you, and the next, a star."

from Rainer Maria Rilke, "Sunset" (translated by Robert Bly)
