Quote for Thought - “Entering into silence is comparable to entering a warm home on a chilly day. As soon as you step through the door, the warmth surrounds you and immediately makes itself felt. But if you are chilled to the bone, it takes a while for the warmth to sink in. The same is true of silence. The
moment you sit in meditation and become silent, the silence surrounds you and immediately makes itself felt. But the chatter of your wandering mind and the frayed edges of a hectic day have a real grip on you, it takes a while for silence to sink in.”
     - James Finley in Christian Meditation, Harper San Francisco, pp. 106-107

 

 

Quote for Thought Lite -
     “If you wish to be happy,
      Let me tell you the way:
      Don’t live tomorrow
      ‘Til you lived today.”
