Happy Sunday everyone. I hope you’re all having a very restful weekend. This week’s Sunday Letter is going to be a little different; rather than sharing about something that has been happening to me recently and what I’ve learned/am learning from it, I’d like to share with you some quotes that have helped me in times of weariness and hopelessness.

Sending you love,

“The wound is the place where the Light enters you.”
Rumi
“What you seek is seeking you.”
Rumi
“Soul would have us go where we fear to go in order to learn who we are intended to be.”
Michael Meade
“I wish I could show you, when you are lonely or in darkness, the astonishing light of your own Being.”
Hafiz
“May flowers always line your path and sunshine light your day.
May songbirds serenade you every step along the way.
May a rainbow run beside you in a sky that’s always blue.
And may happiness fill your heart each day your whole life through.”
Irish Blessing
“We can judge our progress by the courage of our questions and the depth of our answers, our willingness to embrace what is true rather than what feels good.”
Carl Sagan
“The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.”
Alan Watts
“Accept what is, let go of what was, and have faith in what will be.”
Sonia Ricotti
“In the midst of winter, I found there was, within me, an invincible summer.”
Albert Camus
“Within you, there is a stillness and a sanctuary to which you can retreat at anytime and be yourself.”
Hermann Hesse
“Have patience with with everything unresolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves, like locked rooms and like books that are now written in a very foreign tongue. Do not now seek the answers, which cannot be given you because you would not be able to live them. And the point is, to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps then, someday far in the future, you will gradually, without even noticing it, live your way into the answer.”
Rainer Maria Rilke
