Re: Daily Wisdom Saying

i'm against all forms of prejudice, even those of which i am myself guilty.

do not be afraid to love. do not be afraid to be inconvenienced by love.

it is easier to see God in everything than to try to figure it out.

Re: Daily Wisdom Saying

when we lose our selves in love, creativity, the Transcendent, or in our own hearts, we are allowed to feel what living is like. only in surrendering something absolutely can we gain (or learn) anything.

Life In Hell rocks.
