Though you cannot remember it now, you have taken a vow with the stars as your witness to offer your heart to this world. You have agreed to remain naked, raw, and vulnerable forever, to enter the heart of sadness and the ocean of tenderness if that is where love calls you. Your only guide is the unknown, and the only map is found inside the cells of your own heart.
~Rodney Thurman
how I will be when I need to rest…
inquiry for today~ what underlies the life you’re living?
In the depth of my soul there is
A wordless song – a song that lives
In the seed of my heart.
It refuses to melt with ink on
Parchment; it engulfs my affection
In a transparent cloak and flows,
But not upon my lips.
It is a song composed by contemplation,
And published by silence,
And shunned by clamor,
And folded by truth,
And repeated by dreams,
And understood by love,
And hidden by awakening,
And sung by the soul.
~Khalil Gibran
