Since 1998 I've been sending out these reflections first thing each
week--one or more quotes plus my thoughts about the intersections and
contradictions. They're archived here back to 2002, and a new one is
posted every Monday morning. Dialogue is still welcome . . .

Quote #1211 - #Carefully
10 Nov, 2025
CARE-FULLY
"Sometimes I wish I could walk around with a Handle With Care sign stuck to my forehead."
Elizabeth Wurtzel
"...how far are we willing to go for the people we love? I think love changes the way we think. It's the thing that takes you out of what your normal set of beliefs would be."
Jodi Picoult
Handle with care.
Me.
You.
All we do.
It doesn't mean do everything for anyone
or something for everyone
but
it does mean to do it
the most care-fully you are able.
I strive for that
each moment--
fail miserably much of the time,
but still try--
whether work, play
loving, writing--
to do it as care-fully
as I might--
for myself and those I love, yes,
but also for the ripple effects--
the butterfly-wing-flapping effects--
in places unknowable and unknown.
