The real voyage of discovery
consists not in
seeking new landscapes
but in having new eyes.
Proust
We are here to
help each other
get through this thing,
whatever it is.
Kurt Vonnegut
The unchallenged thought
Is a closed, dim room,
Airless as midnight
A monotonous tune.
Open a window
— Questions bloom —
Wind takes the walls
Leaving sky and a moon.
What good is a mirror
That will not break?
What good is an answer
That never aches?
Unlearn the shape
That the silence made,
let doubt carve rivers
Through the mind’s parade.
Every bright star
Turns to ash in the day;
It's the burning Now
that ever lights my way.

Like all great travelers,
I have seen more
than I remember,
and remember more
than I have seen.

People are like
stained-glass windows.
They sparkle and shine
when the sun is out, but
when the darkness sets in,
their true beauty is revealed only
if there is a light from within.
Elisabeth Kübler-Ross
