Dear Laine,

My past has left me too empowered in the present to be afraid of the future.

Dear Laine,

When I was in London a few years back, I learned that to cross the road, even at the zebra crossings, I had to commit or get run down.

That’s seem pertinent to life in general: if you’re going to do something, commit to it or risk getting metaphorically run down.

Best,

CB

You will not get these seconds back.

Dear Laine,

My grandmother often asks, "What do you need?" And that's the real question, isn't it? What do you need, so that I might help provide it? Best, Cassie

Dear Laine,

I never really valued hobbies until I learned how grounding they can be.

Best, Cassie

Dear Laine,

You have to build the life you want. Your partner, friends, and family help; they are integral, but ultimately, it’s up to you. 

best,

We can foster happiness and joy in ourselves despite the struggles of life. Best, Cassie

[letterstolaine]

Dear Laine,

What is the making of a happy life? The sum of all effort put in, never mind the tragedies and failures? The totality of loving acts inward reflected/refracted outward? Best, CB

[letterstolaine]

Dear Laine,

I have come to accept that I will never remain silent in the face of even the most tiny bit of unfairness or inequality. 

best,

Cassie

Dear Laine

There’s a lot to be grateful for in small everyday moments of life. Peace be with you, CB

A person gotta cultivate a little piece of contentment in the soul to start working on cultivating happiness.

Dear Laine,

that "I can't believe this is reality" life Best, Cassie

[letterstolaine]

Dear Laine,

The sweet soft snores of family on a Thanksgiving night gives me life.

Dear Laine,

Doesn’t it make sense that humans share so many similar DNA traits with animals since we’re all just stardust?

Dear Laine,

You can tell if a plant’s dirt is too dry by how light the pot is, taking into account the weight of the plant plus the actual pot. Moist soil is heavier than dry soil. Water will run straight through soil that’s too dry. 

To save distressed plants in too dry soil, just soak them in a bucket or in the bathtub. The soil will become hydrated as the water forces out air in the dirt. 

Just FYI.

best, 

Cassie
