blooming blossoms on flowering tree

"do you not see
that you and I
are as the branches of one tree?
with your rejoicing 
comes my laughter;
with your sadness
start my tears
love,
could life be otherwise
with you and me?"

quick trip to seagrove, nc where there are more than 90 potteries in a 20-mile area. some are eighth and ninth generation potters in a place rich with a 200-year old tradition. 

this fellow and his wife have been potters for 20 years, and are fifth generation.

"quality is never an accident; it is always the result of high intention, sincere effort, intelligent direction, and skillful execution."

"when you rise in the morning, give thanks for the light, for your life, for your strength. give thanks for your food and for the joy of living."

star magnolia blossoms

"we only have this moment,
 sparkling like a star in our hand... 
and melting like a snowflake.  
let us use it before it is too late."
