You progress not through what has been done, but reaching towards what has yet to be done.
Khalil GibranFor even as love crowns you so shall he crucify you. Even as he is for your growth so is he for your pruning. Even as he ascends to your height and caresses your tenderest branches that quiver in the sun, so shall he descend to your roots and shake them in their clinging to the earth.
Khalil Gibran
