feeling like an oyster. Current mood:  intense yep. feeling like an oyster. just can't wait for the damn pearl. i was reminded of something a friend sent to me not too long ago. when i received it, i thought it was pretty cliche, corny, didn't give it much merit. it certainly holds more truth than i first gave it credit. today, i am reminding myself that good will come from what is happening now. that good, it always does. and that tomorrow is just that, tomorrow. makes it a little more tolerable. "A pearl is a beautiful thing that is produced by an injured life. It is the tear that results from the injury of the oyster. The treasure of our being in this world is also produced by an injured life. If we had not been wounded, if we had not been injured, then we will not produce the pearl."   Stephan Hoeller hydrangea in bloom - taken last week
