Every painting is a voyage 

into a sacred harbour.

There's nothing written in the Bible, 

Old or New testament, that says, 

If you believe in Me, you ain't 

going to have no troubles.

Ray Charles

Just to be is a blessing. 

Just to live is holy.

    Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel*

 Pleasure is spread 

through the earth in

stray gifts to be claimed 

by whoever shall find.

William Wordsworth, 1806

I didn't want to tell the tree 

or weed what it was.

I wanted it to tell me something 

and through me express its

     Wynn Bullock

I began to have an idea of my life, 

not as the slow shaping 

of achievement to fit

my preconceived purposes, but 

as the gradual discovery and growth 

of a purpose which I did not know.
