A Positive Force




In reality, love is a positive force, a transcendent spiritual power.
It is, in fact, the deepest creative power in human nature.
Rooted in the biological riches of our inheritance, love flowers spiritually as freedom and as a creature response to life in perfect encounter with another person.
It is a living appreciation of life as value as gift.
It responds to the full richness, the variety, the fecundity of living experience itself: it "knows" the inner mystery of life.
It enjoys life as an inexhaustible fortune.
-- Thomas Merton

We cannot change the directions of the wind,
but we can adjust our sails.

Living without an aim is like sailing without a compass.

Have a beautiful day unless you plan otherwise.
