I wish the zeal may but last

I love today's quote so much that I made a little watercolour note of it in my sketchbook.

Scottish novelist and poet Sir Walter Scott wrote in his journal on November 21, 1825 at age 54:


"I am enamoured of my journal. I wish the zeal may but last."

Wishing you much zeal in the keeping of your journal!

  2. Grace is overrated? I can journal with the best of them. Even taught a few classes on it. Grace is exactly in the SUPPLY THAT IS SUFFICIENT FOR ME. I am not equipped with grace for your victories and defeats your education and wisdim, I am equipped with grace enough to be perfectly me. Did I make any conclusion that is not correct? Grace is why so many people who need help with this area you have a great passion for, nothing is overrated by grace enough to get the first word down on paper.
