Always searching for something to be

March 19, 2011March 19, 2011 Karl Duffy

A person knows they have found their vocation when they stop thinking about how to live, and begin to live.

Thomas Merton.

The arrogant mind never stops looking for identity and this identity always defines itself through attributes: “the beautiful one”, “the smart one”, “the creative one”, “the successful one”…

We are always searching for something to be.
