The goal is to realize that every moment of our lives is a meditation. Allow yourself to marvel at the wonder of God's work all around us. Throughout your day, let the sun, a tree, a piece of fruit remind you that everything you could ever want has been provided and can be found right here on earth.

That vigilance is the most important proof of respect for the law.

  Nadine Gordimer

That's all I have to say about it, but I wish to say it with all the emphasis of which I am capable.

Seek him without tiring, welcome him without reserve, love him without interruption: today, tomorrow, forever.
