“Being able to receive gifts is a gift. When we receive gifts from others, we give them a gift of giving.”
Miriam Hurdle, Songs of Heartstrings

“An even, straight path is attractive. Its predictable routine perpetuates with no extra effort required. It becomes autopilot that leads to endless same old thing.

An uneven, windy path is unavoidable to many. Its unforeseen, exciting adventures require balance, adjustment, alertness and attention. A path that leads to a rewarding dream of your life.”
Miriam Hurdle, Songs of Heartstrings

“Does a good life mean having a large volume of productivity? Does it mean it’s good when it has a more successful outcome? Who remembers the hard work I did last year, two years ago, or ten years ago? I have a daughter and two granddaughters. My love for them is equal. I love their being, not their doing. Every being is valuable even if they can’t produce anything.”
Miriam Hurdle, The Winding Road: A Journey of Survival
