Given her particular religeous beliefs and her life's work, this observation appears almost out of place.
She must have been on about God's love... that certainly hurts...
Quote for today:
We shape clay into a pot, but it is the emptiness inside that holds whatever we want.
Lao Tzu
Because I am trying to become a Grandmaster I am on a fast track posting mission, so we have two quotes today...
“People have a hard time letting go of their suffering. Out of a fear of the unknown, they prefer suffering that is familiar.”
― Thich Nhat Hanh
'There's many a slip twixt cup and a lip.'
Billy The Kid.
“People have a hard time letting go of their suffering. Out of a fear of the unknown, they prefer suffering that is familiar.”
― Thich Nhat Hanh
So very true. Must stop now, just walking out the door.
"The soul would have no rainbow if the eye had no tears"
