All
human life has its seasons and cycles, and
no one's personal chaos can be permanent.
Winter, after all, gives way to spring and
summer, though sometimes when branches
stay dark and the earth cracks with ice,
one thinks they will never come, that
spring, and that summer, but they do, and
always. - Truman Capote

Each
man takes care that his neighbor shall not
cheat him. But a day comes when he begins
to care that he does not cheat his
neighbor. Then all goes well. He has
changed his market cart into a chariot of
the sun. - Ralph
Waldo Emerson

"Perhaps
real wisdom lies in not seeking answers at
all. Any answer we find will not be true
for long. An answer is a place where we
can fall asleep as life moves past us to
its next question. After all these years I
have begun to wonder if the secret of
living well is not in having all the
answers, but in pursuing unanswerable
questions in good company." from My
Grandfather's Blessings by Rachel
Naomi Remen

An

This
world is white no longer, and it will
never be white again. - James
