What we cannot understand

What we cannot understand
or what we deny,
we can never transcend.

Quote of the Day

So I turn my head and look towards death now. Feeling my way through the tunnel with the space of emptiness and quiet. That shimmering silence that awaits me...
A breath...A pause. I relax, and then float on toward the opening awaiting me...
This is my direction now; inward to the green pastures, to the great light of divine love, the great peace of All Knowing.

~ Karen Paine-Gernee, quoted in LIFE PRAYERS
