connection



We cannot suffer well unless we see Christ everywhere--both in suffering and in the charity of
those who come to the aid of our affliction.

Forests and fields, sun and wind and sky, earth and water,
all speak the same language:
Peace, Solitude, Silence.

Love

It is from her album titled "back in the day."
hope you enjoy the quote below....I love, love, love it!
Namaste,

The question of love is one that cannot be evaded.
Whether or not you claim to be interested in it, from the
moment you are alive you are bound to be concerned
with love,
because love is not just something that happens to you: It is a certain special way of being alive. Love is,
in fact, an intensification of life, a completeness, a fullness,
a wholeness of life.

-Thomas Merton

just sit back and enjoy the ride


The truth that many people never understand, until it is too late,
is that the more you try to avoid suffering the more you suffer because
smaller and more insignificant things
begin to torture you in proportion to your fear of being hurt.
-- Thomas Merton
