“My dear friend, Bonnie, is a person who rests and, consequently, earned my ire early in our relationship. Her ability to rest eventually taught me incredibly valuable lessons about the art of taking time-outs. To this day, Bonnie is astutely aware of times when her energy dips too low and resolutely honors her need to rest. To boost her energy, she's been known to sit quietly with a cup of tea, adjourn a workshop we were co-facilitating to take a five-minute breather, or slip out of her own wedding reception to be restored by a few minutes of solitude in the sun.” NeedsPersonsArtEnergyAbilityKnownSunFiveMinutesTaughtHonorLessonsSolitudeLowsDearValuableCupsTeaThis DaySlipsOur RelationshipTake TimeFive MinutesWorkshopsBoostDipCups Of TeaDear FriendReceptionValuable LessonsWedding Reception Author:Sue Thoele

“The Violins waltzed. The Cellos and Basses provided accompaniment. The Violas mourned their fate, while the Concertmaster showed off. The Flutes did bird imitations…repeatedly, and the reed instruments had the good taste to admire my jacket. The Trumpets held a parade in honor of our great nation, while the French Horns waxed nostalgic about something or other. The Trombones had too much to drink. The Percussion beat the band, and the Tuba stayed home playing cards with his landlady, the Harp, taking sips of warm milk a blue little cup. “But the Composer is still dead.” LittlesStillsHomeNationsToo MuchFateHonorDrinkTasteBandBeatsBirdBlueInstrumentsWarmAdmireCardsCupsMilkComposerImitationHornsJacketsBassViolinTrumpetsNostalgicParadesGood TasteGreat NationsReedsHarpsFlutesViolaPlaying CardsPercussionTromboneTubasFrench Horn Author:Daniel Handler
