"To live content with small means; to seek elegance rather than luxury, and refinement rather than fashion, to be worthy, not respectable, and wealthy, not rich; to study hard think quietly, talk quietly, act frankly, to listen to stars and birds, to babes and sages, with open heart, to bear all cheerfully, to all bravely await occasions, hurry never.
In a word, to that the spiritual unbidden and unconscious grow up through the common. This is to be my symphony."
William Henry Channing (1810-1884)
Live in content...
Live a life both big and simple...
The above quote was chosen by Splenderosa who asked many bloggers to express the things in life that are important. I love her idea and am thrilled to express my own version of living life in content.

We have to seize these moments where we find them, right?
