The Little Prince

Last night my wife and I ate at Whole Foods, I’m heading to Orlando for a presentation, and she needed a few things for lunches. There was a young child waiting with his mom in the checkout line, he looked just like the little prince in Saint-Exupery’s book The Little Prince. As we ate, MaryBeth told me about her day, but I was lost in the Sahara desert or was it a fable imprinted deep within my soul. This morning I turned to the torn yellowed page of my journal decorated with hand drawn blue ink flowers, and a thought captured in tears years ago, “and through all the tears, sadness, and pain, comes one thought, that brings internal smiles – I have loved and been loved.” Tell someone how much you love them today.
