A New Map

We shall not cease from exploration
And the end of all our exploring
Will be to arrive where we started
And know the place for the first time.

-- T.S. Eliot (1942)

two ways, one way

The human soul is always moving outward
into the external world and inward into itself,
and this movement is double
because the human soul would not
be conscious were it not suspended between contraries.
The greater the contrast,
the more intense the consciousness.

-- William Butler Yeats

Roots by the stream

He will be like a tree planted by the water
that sends out its roots by the stream.
It does not fear when heat comes;
its leaves are always green.
It has no worries in a year of drought and
never fails to bear fruit.

Jeremiah 17:8 (NIV)

2 Corinthians 4:17-18

While we look not at the things which are seen,
but at the things which are not seen:
for the things which are seen are temporal;
but the things which are not seen are eternal.

(2 Corinthians 4:18)

Thy Will

Thou changest my flesh into fertile soil;
Thou turnest my blood into streams of water;
Thou kneadest my clay,
I know, to make a new universe.

~ Hazrat Inayat Khan

God's living love

You are truly successful when you are
a healthy channel through whom God's
living love can flow like fresh water to thirsty souls.
