Kinda Squares, Week 4 Review

It’s hard to believe another week of Kinda Squares has passed as I sit and prepare this review and (re)share the square photos I posted over the past week. As I’ve done in my other reviews, the gallery also includes the featured image for this post and a bonus photo because it takes nine little squares to make one big one (when viewed on a desktop anyway).

One who knows how to show and to accept kindness will be a friend better than any possession.

Day 22 – Sophocles (497/6 – winter 406/5 BC). Here’s another interesting fact about Sophocles who was also quoted on Day 19. Sophocles was a wealthy member of the rural deme (small community) of Hippeios Colonus in Attica, which was to become a setting for one of his plays; and he was probably born there, a few years before the Battle of Marathon in 490 BC: the exact year is unclear, but 497/6 is most likely.

Try to be a rainbow in someone’s cloud.

Day 25 – Maya Angelou (April 4, 1928 – May 28, 2014). Here’s another interesting fact about Maya Angelou who was also quoted on Day 17. Maya Angelou is best known for her series of seven autobiographies, which focus on her childhood and early adult experiences. The first, I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings (1969), tells of her life up to the age of 17 and brought her international recognition and acclaim.

What wisdom can you find that is greater than kindness?
