Inward Stillness
Let us then labor for an inward stillness—
An inward stillness and an inward healing;
That perfect silence where the lips and heart
Are still, and we no longer entertain
Our own imperfect thoughts and vain opinions,
But God alone speaks in us, and we wait
In singleness of heart, that we may know
God’s will, and in the silence of our spirit,
That we may do God’s will and do that only.
—Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
Never Doubt…
Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world.
Indeed, it’s the only thing that ever has.
—Margaret Mead
Always Urge
Urge and urge and urge,
Always the procreant urge of the world.
Out of the dimness opposite equals advance,
always substance and increase, always sex,
Always a knit of identity, always distinction, always a breed of life.
— Walt Whitman
Little Gems and Tidbits
Surrender
Surrender is the most difficult thing in the world while you are doing it
And the easiest thing in the world when it is done
Unleashing the Genie
What is the level you could live at if you really unleashed the genie of your real potential powers ? Where do you need to be placing your attention to leave that door open? And what is it in our conduct of life that so easily and readily closes that door for us?
Too Little Silence
There is too little silence in the world and too little silence in people to connect with the Reality of things. Words and language are necessary but keep us external to deeper realities and very seldom are capable of expressing those deeper realities. People are fearful of that silence but to really know who you are you should be enriched by that silence and rooted in it even when you are speaking. All the talk, all the chatter obscures being part of the vastness of the universe and the purity of God, which is the birthright in common origin of us and of everything.
