Silence does not draw attention to itself. It is the ultimate in letting go and letting be. It is the opposite of the great dramatic event. ~Touchstones
Today I am grateful...
- for good morning emails from Bill
- that it is a rare day when an alarm clock wakes me
- for the comedy of Tina Fey, 30 Rock is brilliantly written
- for Trish's brilliant lead in yesterday's nooner meeting, to which I was late in arriving but managed to only miss the opening prayer and How It Works
- that the program does work (I no longer say if you work it. Because if you aren't working it, it is still working for me)
This is what I believe:
That I am I.
That my soul is a dark forest.
That my known self will never be more than a little clearing in the forest.
That gods, strange gods, come forth from the forest into the clearing of my known self, and then go back.
That I must have the courage to let them come and go.
That I will never let mankind put anything over me, but that I will try always to recognize and submit to the gods in me and the gods in other men and women.
There is my creed. ~D. H. Lawrence
