A Stop in Berea KY etc.

 I gave a brief photo of this little pocket park in Berea, where I stopped to stretch my legs on the way north. But I want to share these while I’m already on my drive back home.

The sign is a bit difficult to read, but speaks of the early efforts for integrated education in the area…which was outlawed in 1903 in Kentucky, then finally became legal again in the 1950s.

The town is known for art festivals and the private liberal arts college, Berea College, founded in 1855. The arts and crafts community is known throughout the south.

Someday maybe I’ll tour more of the town and college!

"Igikai" is a Japanese word for 'your reason for being'.
Ikigai: the intersection of passion, mission, vocation, and profession.

It's where what you love meets what you're good at, what you can be paid for, and what the world needs.

'From all kinds of flowers,

Seek teachings everywhere,

Like a deer that finds

A quiet place to graze,

Seek Seclusion to digest

All you have gathered. . .'

Happy December everyone. I’m sharing foxes instead of rabbits to wish you good fortune!

I noticed people who read my blog on their phones miss seeing the headers. So I’ll add them as footers!
