Take this blessed opportunity to change your destiny.

Have Mercy on yourself.

In the Shadows

Thomas Hardy

Proud Songsters

The thrushes sing as the sun is going,
And the finches whistle in ones and pairs,
And as it gets dark loud nightingales
In bushes
Pipe, as they can when April wears,
As if all Time were theirs.
These are brand-new birds of twelve-months’ growing,
Which a year ago, or less than twain,
No finches were, nor nightingales,
Nor thrushes,
But only particles of grain,
And earth, and air, and rain.

Confession. It Can Be Said.

Mahatma Gandhi

Confession of errors is like a broom which sweeps away the dirt and leaves the surface brighter and clearer. I feel stronger for confession.

Comprehending and Understanding. Which Will it Be?

Thomas Merton
We have what we seek, it is there all the time, and if we give it time, it will make itself known to us.
