Little Duck’s Thoughts
Inspired by:
I’ll tell you what love of this life is.
It’s looking up
through trees newly bare of leaves
and seeing there the oldest road,
a broken line of white stars
stretching out across the sky.
It’s thinking,
this could be enough.– Susan Elbe, Light Made From Nothing
Credits: Little Duck Comic Adapted from Poorly Drawn Lines. Susan Elbe quote: Whiskey River
And suddenly you know: that was enough
Remembering
And you wait. You wait for the one thing
that will change your life,
make it more than it is –
something wonderful, exceptional,
stones awakening, depths opening to you.
In the dusky bookstalls
old books glimmer gold and brown.
You think of lands you journeyed through,
of paintings and a dress once worn
by a woman you never found again.
And suddenly you know: that was enough.
You rise and there appears before you
in all its longings and hesitations
the shape of what you lived.
– Rainer Maria Rilke
