Nicaraguan folk art
Life is pure adventure,
and the sooner we realize that,
the sooner we will be able to treat life as art.
This just seemed perfect for me right now; we’re about to embark on pure adventure in four days when we leave for Nicaragua and our volunteer work with Seeds of Learning. My greatest wish for my children is that they realize their life is ‘pure adventure’, and that they are the artist holding the brush.
This beautiful quote, by my favorite author, is from a beautiful website, First Sip.
