can you see the (very faint) heart?
in moments when i want to do so much, the little i can do seems so insufficient. and yet i am reminded that everything matters.

True. SO true.
When I feel this way I stop everything. I stop and prioritize and put my love into one little thing at a time until I get my perspective back.
The little you do DOES matter.

i DO see the little heart! beautiful!
everything matters. intention matters. sometimes the magnitude of the intention (the want, the desire) is so much bigger than the magnitude of the possible action...but I think the intention still echos just as loud.

Oh, yes...it does, Elizabeth! LOVE is really all that matters. I've been felling similar lately, and I think I'll be taking a break and a mini digital sabbatical soon to get back to my roots and refocus. LOVE this photo...it breathes of love. :o) Happy Weekend ((HUGS))
