There are words which sever hearts more than sharp swords; there are words the point of which sting the heart through the course of a whole life.
As you are externally aware, so also you can be inwardly aware of your thoughts and feelings, of your motives and urges, of your prejudices, envies, greed and pride…This outward and inward awareness is a unitary process which brings about a total integration of human understanding.
Begin with yourself. There is no time to waste. It is your duty to do your part to bring God’s kingdom on earth.
To understand oneself profoundly, one needs balance. Neither renunciation nor acquiescence.
When the creative impulse sweeps over you, grab it! You grab it and honour it and use it, because momentum is a rare gift.
