profoundly

“It’s not healthy to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society” Jiddu Krishnamurti

“There is no need to go searching for a remedy for the evils of the time. The remedy already exists – it is the gift of one’s self to those who have fallen so low that even hope fails them. Open wide your heart.” Rene Bazin

hiding place

“Love makes your soul crawl out from its hiding place.” Zora Neale Hurston

heaviest load

Think of the wretches who in your experience have borne the heaviest load of sorrow, and I will match my grief’s with theirs. Indeed I think that I could tell an even longer tale of woe, if I gave you a full account of what I have been fated to endure.-Homer, The Odyssey

light

“There is a light in this world, a healing spirit more powerful than any darkness you may encounter. We sometimes lose sight of this force when there is suffering, too much pain. Then suddenly the spirit will emerge through the lives of ordinary people who hear a call and answer in extraordinary ways.” Mother Teresa
