Does the Speed Of Life Shatter You? - #218


Life does not accommodate you; it shatters you. Every seed destroys its container, or else there would be no fruition.
FLORIDA SCOTT-MAXWELL*
I have seen quotes from Florida Scott-Maxwell before and wondered about her. Google says she was born in Florida and died in 1979. 

Her quotes are quotable. Here are two more for you:

"Anger must be the energy that has not yet found its right channel."

"I grow more intense as I age."

You may be hearing more from her as I just ordered, The Measure of My Days, for a penny - plus of course 3.99 postage.

The speed of life shatters me.  How about you? Let me know how you are dealing with the fact that it is April!

Thanks for exploring the mystery - Nicky Mendenhall

The image above, in my mind, represents the speed of life in 2016. Barely time enough to see the forest, let alone the trees. I found the first quote on A Network for Grateful Living: Word for the Day.
