That's the latest I've fallen in love with... All Starbucks cups have this "The Way I See It" quote on it... and they make up for a lovely read with the coffee.. :-)
This is what I got from my Starbucks this morning....

Music is what I always turn to when I'm feeling a certain way. It's my reason for everything.
- Josh Groban (musician)
I guess it would take a musician to write something like that. I know this is what I feel too. But I don't think I'd have been able to put that in words.
Be that as it may... time to run along and catch up with my weekend chores. There's only this much that I can sit and muse over something nice that I read.
Have a great week ahead!!

ps: here's another. Got it from their website, here -
#240 - If you can't visualize it, don't build it.
The simplest solution to most of my dilemmas!! :)
I love coffee!

Finished reading…
... Train To Pakistan. Had got the book as a birthday present. What a book! When I finished, I almost felt as if I shouldn’t have. It’s strong. And very moving. Set in the time of the Indo-Pak partition, at the heart of it, is a simple love story.
A couple of things that immediately and almost simultaneously came to my mind.
One, the lot of us have a LOT to be thankful for, to have been born in a time that did not have to witness the partition. God bless the people who survived the trauma, and even those who didn’t.
Two – there is immense power in simplicity. If you ever get a chance to read that book, you’ll realize why I’m saying this. The power of the book lies in the simplicity of its narration. It’s blatantly simple. And that’s what leaves such a great impact on the reader. (did on me, rather)
And finally – there is an amazing power in love.
If you get to lay your hands on that book… don’t lay off without reading it.
