Be content, be content. We are the body of Christ.

We have found Him-He has found us.

We are in Him, He is in us.

There is nothing further to look for, except for the deepening of this life we already possess.

Be content.

- Thomas Merton

Fire is best for mortals and sunshine - And also good health, if you have it, and living beyond reproach.

-Hãvamãl

There are some who ride on white chargers and leap over the moon.

There are others who plot along a muddy road on their own two feet,

often slipping back in a day as far as they've advanced in the past month.

But both sorts of traveler arrive in the same place in the end.

- Phillip Toyshee

Heavenly Father,

May we have one another as you have each one of us more and more each day, and forgive each others’ faults as you forgive our sins.

Help us, O loving Father, to take whatever you give and to give whatever you take with a big smile.

- Mother Teresa

No one can work for two bosses. He will be loyal to one and offend the other.

- Jesus

The Bible is the book of Everyman.

It is primarily a textbook of metaphysics, a manual of the soul’s development, and everything in the Bible, from Genesis to Revelation, is really concerned with that development:

that is to say, the spiritual awakening of the individual.

- Emmet Fox

If you do your best in the search for personal freedom, in the search for self love, you will discover that it is just a matter of time before you find what you are looking for.

You have to stand up and be human.

- Miguel Ruiz

No attempt to improve the spiritual condition

could be a wasted effort.

- Krishna

Natural warmth is our shared capacity to love, to have empathy, to have a sense of humor.

It is also our capacity to feel gratitude, and appreciation and tenderness.

Natural warmth has the power to heal all relationships - the relationship with ourselves as well as with people, animals, and all we encounter every day of our lives.

-Pema Chödrön

“What of Time”

You would measure time, the measureless and immeasurable.

You would adjust your conduct and even direct the course of your spirit according to hours and seasons.

Of time you would make a stream upon whose bank you would sit and watch its flowing.

Yet the timeless in you is aware of life's timelessness, and knows that yesterday is but today's memory and tomorrow is today's dream.

-Anonymous

Flower Child

It's easy for a flower to bloom

while fending off the rays of the sun,

but a wildflower that is able to flourish

in the light of the moon and stars,

through the cold dirt,

brings me rays of courage,

hope of perseverance.

If something so fragile

could brave the darkness and survive

then maybe so can I.

-Sica Siccone

The Guest House

This being human is a guest house.

Every morning a new arrival.

A joy, a depression, a meanness,

some momentary awareness comes as an unexpected visitor.

Welcome and entertain them all!

Even if they are a crowd of sorrows, who violently sweep your house empty of its furniture,

still, treat each guest honorably.

He may be cleaning you out for some new delight.

The dark thought, the shame, the malice,

meet them at the door laughing, and invite them in.

Be grateful for whoever comes because each has been sent as a guide from beyond.

- Rumi
