A life of joy is not in seeking happiness, but in experiencing and simply being the circumstances of our life as they are.
~ by Charlotte Joko Beck
My human attempt to live the gentle life is my promise of cooperation with the grace of gentility once it touches my lífe. My attempt to grow in gentility may tempt me to forget that its outcome is only provisional, a shadow of thíngs to come — the real thing being the divine gentleness of soul that is a pure gift of the Holy.
