You show your worth by what you seek.

There is a life in you, search that life, search the secret jewel in the mountain of your body.

There is a loneliness more precious than life. There is a freedom more precious than the world. Infinitely more precious than life and the world is that moment when one is alone with God.

This is love: to fly toward a secret sky

I do not know who lives here in my chest, or why the smile comes. I am not myself, more the bare green knob of a rose that lost every leaf and petal to the morning wind.

To me nothing in the world is as precious as a genuine smile, especially from a child.

It may be that the satisfaction I need depends on my going away, so that when I've gone and come back, I'll find it at home.
