I love the photo and the phrase. We miss so much in life because we are always racing around to accomplish... sometimes we need to be "useless".

I'm afraid I need to learn that lesson. I feel, sometimes, that I'm only valuable as a human being if I am being useful. Thank you for posting that reminder, Patty. I always love the quotes attributed to Lin Yutang.
