Weekend Getaways!
Harini Chandrasekar
"Leaf peeping" in Vermont over the weekend allowed for a gorgeous fall feast of foliage. Below is a small "peep" into my wonderfully vibrant weekend filled with rich golden hues:)
"A man who cultivates his garden, as Voltaire wished.
He who is grateful for the existence of music.
He who takes pleasure in tracing an etymology.
Two workmen playing, in a café in the South,
a silent game of chess.
The potter, contemplating a color and a form.
The typographer who sets this page well,
though it may not please him.
A woman and a man, who read the last tercets
of a certain canto.
He who strokes a sleeping animal.
He who justifies, or wishes to, a wrong done him.
He who is grateful for the existence of Stevenson.
He who prefers others to be right.
These people, unaware, are saving the world.
- Jorge Luis Borges"
