We have only this moment...

“Begin doing what you want to do now. 

We are not living in eternity. 

We have only this moment,

sparkling like a star in our hand-

and melting like a snowflake...”

Sir Francis Bacon

The paradoxes we must hold as human beings...

“The deeper our faith, the more doubt we must endure; 

the deeper our hope, the more prone we are to despair; 

the deeper our love, the more pain its loss will bring: 

these are a few of the paradoxes we must hold as human beings. 

If we refuse to hold them in the hopes of living, without doubt, despair, and pain, 

we also find ourselves living without faith, hope, and love.”

Parker Palmer

Saint Therese  

She said, “May today there be peace

within. May you trust that you are exactly

where you are meant to be. May you not

forget the infinite possibilities that are born

of faith in yourself and others. May you use the

gifts that you have received, and pass

on the love that has been given to you. 

May you be content with yourself just the way

you are. Let this knowledge settle into your

bones, and allow your soul the freedom to

sing, dance, praise, and love.  It is there for 

each and every one of us."
