Settling, white dew
does not discriminate
each drop its home

Waiting
Existence will remain meaningless for you if you yourself do not penetrate into it with active love,
and if you do not in this way discover its meaning for yourself.
Everything is waiting to be hallowed by you.

Your entire love
Be attentive to what is arising within you, and place that above everything else…What is happening in your innermost self is worthy of your entire love; somehow you must find a way to work at it.

Sunday Quote: To see
What is the hardest thing of all?
What seems to be the easiest: to use your eyes to see what lies in front of you
Goethe, The Heart of Listening
Born into colour
Inside this new love, die.
Your way begins on the other side.
Become the sky.
Take an axe to the prison wall.
Escape.
Walk out like someone suddenly born into colour.
Rumi
What the mind is used to
People have a hard time letting go of their suffering.
Out of a fear of the unknown, they prefer suffering that is familiar.
Thich Nhat Hanh
