 “The whole course of human history may depend on a change of heart in one solitary and even humble individual — for it is in the solitary mind and soul of the individual that the battle between good and evil is waged and ultimately won or lost.”                 
                                                                    — Scott Peck

TODAY'S VALUES


“Acquitted, acquitted, acquitted.”
      A very impressive CV!

____________

I will not die an unlived life
I will not live in fear of falling or catching fire.
I choose to inhabit my days
to allow my living to open me
to make me less afraid, more accessible
to loosen my heart until it becomes
a wing, a torch, a promise.

I choose to risk my significance;
to live so that which comes to me as seed
goes to the next as blossom
and that which came to me as blossom
goes on as fruit.

                                     — Dawna Markova
