Ahhhhh Maya Angelou ... "The human heart ..."

A woman to admire!  Well respected.  A poet.  A writer.  A performer.  A teacher.  A woman wisened by years of life ... A woman who learned lessons in life ... and dares to share.

You cannot help but take command of your life, or surrender to it (even if for only a few moments), after reading her inspirations ... From the book titled, Letter to My Daughter, I share this with you (I have taken one paragraph and written each sentence on a separate line, because this is important stuff!!):

"The human heart is so delicate and sensitive that it always needs some tangible encouragement to prevent it from faltering in its labor.

The human heart is so robust, so tough, that once encouraged it beats its rhythm with a loud unswerving insistency.

One thing that encourages the heart is music.

Throughout the ages we have created songs to grow on and to live by.

We Americans have created music to embolden the hearts and inspire the spirit of people all over the world."


In the sharing mood today, while stuck on 'Love',
