In the stillness of quiet

Howard Thurman
July/August 2024 (Vol. XXXVII, No. 7)
In the stillness of quiet, if we listen, we can hear the whisper of the heart giving strength to weakness, courage to fear, hope to despair.

Quote of the Day

"It is the time you waste on our flowers that makes your flowers unique," the Little Prince said when he realized that the world was full of flowers that looked just like his own. It is love that transforms the vast unknowable, the anonymous universe with all its chaotic eruptions of pain and joy, its life and death, with a world that we can live in and make sense of in some way.

~ In "ICRE Perspectives" by Danny Martin
