God is not what you think

or even what you believe,

because God is

a word unspoken,

a thought unthought,

a belief unbelieved.

So if you wish to know

this God, practice wonder,

do what is good, and cultivate silence.

The rest will follow.

~contemplative monk

and I listen for the day to round the corner into softness….

inquiry for today~ match the mood to the day…

happy tunes

Can you understand? Someone,

somewhere, can you understand

me a little, love me a little? For all

my despair, for all my ideals, for

all that- I love life. But it is hard,

and I have so much- so very

much to learn.

~Sylvia Plath
