Widen out the boundaries of our being

I read this excerpt in O Magazine and immediately thought of this community on PulseWire. To look out for each other in a global way, one connection at a time.

"To feel the love of people whom we love is a fire that feeds our life. But to feel the affection that comes from those whom we do not know, from those unknown to us, who are watching over our sleep and solitude, over our dangers and our weaknesses -- that is something still greater and more beautiful because it widens out the boundaries of our being, and unites all living things."

~ Pablo Neruda, from "Childhood and Poetry"

Hi Lizzie! Thank you so much for sharing your story. I just read it and left my thoughts there.

I'm happy for the weekend, it's just Friday morning here in California as I write to you, and am eager to celebrate a good friend's birthday tonight.

Have a wonderful weekend!
