Yuval Noah Harari On Meaning.

An infinite number of hopeless souls fill our world. And many more fight tirelessly for a sign, symbol, or sense of change that will fuel their aching hearts. Some days I appear to be the only one that can see the damage being done; my peers are weak from meaninglessness, but fight daily and hourly […]
Albert Murray On The Story-Teller

Books provide the wisdom, and sight, necessary to walk deeper into the world. And as our apprenticeship with reading grows our consciousness expands to meet the demands of any heroic effort.

Dear Butterfly, Your beauty has increased since I last brought you into my chest, and, recently you’ve been competing with the sun, I crave to sit beneath and within you.

A love that consists of two solitudes by Marie Rainer Rilke

Patience is required for the gestation and birth of the seeds–of creativity, transformation and expansion–that are begging for growth inside of us; because blessings come from spaces that rest beyond […]
