The difference between work and play is only a matter of attitude. Work, fully done, is play.

To experience a little hunger now and then can be a beautiful reminder of the deeper hunger of our souls.

But love's true nature remains forever beyond the grasp of all our faculties. It is far greater than any feeling or emotion and completely surpasses any act of human kindness. It is the one sheer gift of contemplation, completely unattainable by autonomous human effort. The realization of this love always remains mysterious.

Blessings sometimes come through brokenness that could never come in any other way.

The difference between work and play is only a matter of attitude. Work, fully done, is play.

I would prefer a thousand mistakes in extravagance of love to any paralysis in wariness of fear.

We have this idea that everyone should be totally independent, totally whole, totally together spiritually, totally fulfilled. That is a myth. In reality, our lack of fulfillment is the most precious gift we have. It is the source of our passion, our creativity, our search for God. All the best of life comes out of our human yearning, our not being satisfied.
