I haven't been posting songs or quotes recently. As many of you know, i keep a book of quotes, movie titles, things teachers and friends have said, etc. This is the quote I started the book with and it is always perfect for all moments of life. Whether you are religious or not, it is about appreciating life each in each moment, in a very "I went into the woods" Thoreau way... I'll share it with you all:
"There is no event so commonplace but that God is present within it, always hiddenly, always leaving you room to recognize Him or not to recognize Him, but all the more fascinatingly because of that, all the more compellingly and hauntingly....Listen to your life. See it for the fathomless mystery that it is. In the boredom and the pain of it no less than in the excitement and gladness; touch, taste, smell your way to the holy and hidden heart of it because in the last analysis all moments are key moments, and life itself is grace."
