The conclusion is always the same

Pierre Teilhard de Chardin

The conclusion is always the same:
love is the most powerful
and still the most unknown
energy of the world.

Quote of the Day

In order to continually re-imagine ourselves through our work lives, we must have a part of us that belongs to something beyond the status quo. Something over the horizon or, paradoxically, beneath us, in the ground of our life. Something as yet hidden, yet to be brought to light. Something which is governed by other laws than the ones we so assiduously obey every day. Something to do with the laws that govern the way we belong to this stubborn and beautiful world.
