" The soul is 
made of love
 and must ever strive 
to return to love. -









Yellow Banner High
- Therefore, 
it can never find 
rest nor happiness 
in other things. 
It must lose itself in love. "

Mechthild of Magdenburg

" Truth 
isn't always beauty, 










Meditate Upon Every Day Wonders



- but 
the hunger 
for it is. "

Nothing wrong with an inconvenient ugly truth. (as long as it is truth as truth knows itself to be)

"Truth is not always beauty." That's for sure...but so worth it in the long run. Those who don't like the truth feel that way for a reason.

I really enjoyed the Nadine Gormier quote about truth and beauty.

What a rebuttal to John Keats' Ode on a Grecian Urn: "Beauty is truth, truth beauty,—that is all. Ye know on earth, and all ye need to know."
