Usually, when the distractions of daily life deplete our energy, the first thing we eliminate is the thing we need the most: quiet, reflective time.

Time to dream, time to contemplate what’s working and what’s not …

– Sarah Ban Breathnach – Simple Abundance:

Everyone of us is shadowed by an illusory person: a false self …

We are not very good at recognizing illusions …

Our reality, our true self, is hidden in what appears to us to be nothingness …

– Thomas Merton –

Life is an experimental journey undertaken involuntarily. It is a journey of the spirit through the material world and, since it is the spirit that travels, it is the spirit that is experienced. That is why there exist contemplative souls who have lived more intensely, more widely, more tumultuously than others who have lived their lives purely externally.

– Fernando Pessoa – The Book of Disquiet

I got my head but my head is unraveling

can’t keep control can’t keep track

of where it’s traveling

I got my heart but my heart’s no good

you’re the only one that’s understood

I come along but I don’t know

where you’re taking me

I shouldn’t go

but you’re wrenching, dragging, shaking me

turn off the sun pull the stars from the sky

the more I give to you the more I die

and I want you …

You are the perfect drug

(Take me with you)

without you everything just falls apart

it’s not as much fun to pick up the pieces
