I am a collector of words

Words feed me, free me, comfort, uplift and heal me. I've been saving my favorites in books, handwritten over the years and thought that perhaps in sharing them, not only am I preserving them for myself, but perhaps others may also find healing in them as I have.

Discovery

"When you limit your life to one frame of thinking you close out the mystery.   When you fence in the desires of your heart within fixed walls of belief, morality and convention, you dishonor the call of discovery.   You create gray fields of 'quiet desperation'.   Discovery is the nature of the soul.   There is some wildness of divinity in us, calling us to live everything."   John O' Donahue
