A THOUGHT FOR THE DAY




 Why bother with the struggle of self-recognition?
Why risk an encounter with the unknown?
Why probe into the darkness?
Why seek new truths at the expense of the familiar and comfortable ones?

A Thought For the Day



The most difficult aspect of not believing in some divine judgment of our behavior is that evil goes unpunished.  Goodness shares a bench with evil, each existing for its own sake, and that is hard to accept.

A THOUGHT FOR THE DAY


The Soul, that delightful, magical mystery that is each of us.
A silent awesome temple for God, yet also a playground for elves and a stage for minstrels and jesters.

That center within us where we meet God and receive His spirit,
That center from which we reach out and touch the world,

All that becomes us flows into the Soul, and from there it flows outward, to be shared with others.

(from a journal 1977)

A THOUGHT FOR THE DAY





The journey inward is not a call to self-absorption and narcissism, but a preparation for the journey outward.

A THOUGHT FOR THE DAY




 I have been giving a great deal of thought on how to stop my incessant ruminating about   everything.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY



Believing in something may make it a personal truth for the believer, but not a universal truth. Some people lose sight of the fact that faith is personal; it takes us where evidence cannot.  It is wrong to subjugate others to your belief system.  Belief in a supreme being is a CHOICE for all of us to make or reject, a choice that does not reflect on the moral character or worth of the individual.
