Quotes

 For in truth, it is life that gives unto life-while you, who deems yourself a giver, are but a witness.

Kahlil Gibran

I came across two quotes today that touched me deeply.  There is the one above that reminds us that we are merely witnesses of Life, not the givers of it.  We really need to stop trying to control it and settle into sitting back and watching it unravel before us...all its beauty, all its pain.  Trying to "resist" it or "fix" it is such a waste of time. 

Do not carry a rose to our beloved because in it is already embodied a message, which unlike our language of words cannot be analyzed.

Tagore

And I love this one! Life in all its complexies cannot be reduced to words and concepts that the mind analyzes. There is so much intense meaning in all that Life provides...like a rose...that the mind cannot comprehend.  So stop trying to analyze your way through life, to "narrate" your experiences with mere words...instead just watch and appreciate Life as it does its amazing dance before your eyes. It just is.

All is well
