Life


“Those who contemplate the beauty of the earth find reserves of strength that will endure as long as life lasts. There is symbolic as well as actual beauty in the migration of the birds, the ebb and flow of the tides, the folded bud ready for spring. There is something infinitely healing in the repeated refrains of nature – the assurance that dawn comes after night and spring after winter.”

“It is extremely important not to have one’s life all blocked out, not to have the days and weeks totally organised. It is essential to leave gaps and interludes for spontaneous action, for it is often in spontaneity and surprise that we open ourselves to the unlimited opportunities and new areas brought into our lives by chance. It is often in consequence of these very moments that our life paths take their most interesting turnings.”
