God Who Is
It is the whole of nature,
extending from the beginning to the end
that constitutes the one image of God Who Is.
St. Gregory of Nyssa

In each other
Lovers don't finally meet somewhere.
They're in each other all along.

Prayer
I hold on to my adopted shore, chanting private vows:
wherever I am, let me never forget to distinguish want from need.
Let me be a good animal today.
Let me dance in the waves of my private tide,
the habits of survival and love.
the habits of survival and love.
Barbara Kingsolver, High Tide in Tucson

Within yourself

Why should you look for treasure abroad?
Within yourself you have a bright pearl.

Let it be
_DSC6876, a photo by rchoephoto on Flickr.
Possessions, like happiness, are always eluding our grasp. Instead of constantly wanting to have, wouldn’t it be better simply to be to watch and let the natural environment exist in peace? A world whose true joys and riches, continually renewed and replenished, we have yet to fully appreciate?

Life
Life is a journey of approaching a horizon that we never arrive at.

Dive again and again
There are pearls in the deep sea,
but one must hazard all to find them.
If diving once does not bring you pearls,
you need not conclude that the sea is without them.
Dive again and again.

Reality
A dream you dream alone is only a dream.
A dream you dream together is a reality.

This world
This world is too beautiful to be true,
and too beautiful not to be true.

Love everything
Love all God’s creation, the whole of it and every grain of sand. Love every leaf, every ray of God’s light! Love the animals, love the plants, love everything. If you love everything, you will perceive the divine mystery in things. And once you have perceived it, you will begin to comprehend it ceaselessly, more and more every day. And you will at least come to love the whole world with an abiding, universal love.
Fyodor Mikhail Dostoevsky

To be free
To be free is not merely to cast off one’s chains, but to live in a way that respects and enhances the freedom of others.

Artist
To be an artist is not a matter of making paintings or objects at all. What we are really dealing with is our state of consciousness and the shape of our perception. . . . The act of art is a tool for extended consciousness.

Beauty
When you reach the heart of life you shall find beauty in all things, even in the eyes that are blind to beauty.

Empty Handed
Born empty handed,
Die empty handed.
I witnessed life at its fullest,
Empty handed.
