Peace

     If you want oneness in society,
     you have to teach people to go inside
     instead of going outside, 
     because if they want peace, 
     they need to find it within.

A Circle

A circle must have a center        

But a single dot does not make a Circle.

Collaboration

     Collaboration is a process, a process of learning, and
     it's as much as a learning about oneself as about
     others. Moreover, we can learn about others only
     through ourselves. In fact we can have a sense of
     the other only through a greater understanding of
     who we are.

What We Seek

We have what we seek.

We don't have to rush after it.

It was there all the time,

and if we give it time,

it will make itself known to us.

Thomas Merton
