    Pema Chödrön
    “Most of us do not take these situations as teachings. We automatically hate them. We run like crazy. We use all kinds of ways to escape -- all addictions stem from this moment when we meet our edge and we just can't stand it. We feel we have to soften it, pad it with something, and we become addicted to whatever it is that seems to ease the pain.”
    Pema Chödrön, When Things Fall Apart: Heart Advice for Difficult Times

    “Down the hill I went, and then,
    I forgot the ways of men,
    For night-scents, heady and damp and cool
    Wakened ecstasy ”
    Sara Teasdale, Flame and Shadow

    If I Must Go

    If I must go to heaven's end
    Climbing the ages like a stair,
    Be near me and forever bend
    With the same eyes above me there;
    Time will fly past us like leaves flying,
    We shall not heed, for we shall be
    Beyond living, beyond dying,
    Knowing and known unchangeably.”
    Sara Teasdale, Flame and Shadow
