"The truest, most beautiful life never promises to be an easy one. We need to let go of the lie that it’s supposed to be."

Glennon Doyle

Man is the most insane species. He worships an invisible God and slaughters a visible Nature without realizing that this Nature he slaughters is this invisible God he worships. – Hubert Reeves

Give me the courage to change the things I can.
The grace to accept the things I can't.
The wisdom to know the difference.

"For the Stoic, the entire cosmos, with all its joys and pains, grandeurs and abysses was an eternally repeated cycle of creation and dissolution, without beginning or end and the highest philosophical virtue was the cultivation of perfect detachment, in a soul immune to the effects of time and nature alike."
- DB Hart.

If only to have this type of thinking in this day and age but rather challenging. Heavy thinking that someone gave me.

"Hope is a greater warrior than despair."
- Matshona.

‘Good fortune will elevate even petty minds, and gives them the appearance of a certain greatness and stateliness, as from their high place they look down upon the world; but the truly noble and resolved spirit raises itself, and becomes more conspicuous in times of disaster and ill fortune…”

― Plutarch

The Guest House by
Jalaluddin Rumi

This being human is a guest house.
Every morning a new arrival.

A joy, a depression, a meanness,
Some momentary awareness comes
As an unexpected visitor.

Welcome and entertain them all
Even if they're a crowd of sorrows,
Who violently sweep your house
Empty of its furniture,
Still, treat each guest honourable.
He may be clearing you out
For some new delight.

The dark thought, the shame, the malice, meet them at the door laughing,
And invite them in.

Be grateful for whoever comes;
Because each has been sent
As a guide from beyond.

Happiness is like a butterfly: the more you chase it, the more it will elude you; but if you turn your attention to other things, it will come and sit softly on your shoulder. - Henry David Thoreau

Lovely above Shrub. So true.

A divided house cannot stand.

Oh so true. Never truer words.

Sleep tight
Don't let the bed bug bites.

Only when the last tree has died and the river have been poisoned and the last fish is caught will we realize we cannot eat money.

“All of humanity's problems stem from man's inability to sit quietly in a room alone-" -- Pascal

The smallest good deed is better than the best good intention

All beautiful above and thank you and all most helpful to me at this time.

You raise me up
So l can stand on Mountains
You raise me up
To walk on stormy seas
I am strong when l am on your shoulders.
You raise me up to be more than l am.

Another day done.

And once the storm is over, you won’t remember how you made it through, how you managed to survive. You won’t even be sure, whether the storm is really over. But one thing is certain. When you come out of the storm, you won’t be the same person who walked in. That’s what this storm’s all about.

Courage is not the absence of fear; rather it is the ability to take action in the face of fear.
Nancy Anderson
