I Ask Percy How I Should Live my Life - Mary Oliver
Love, love, love says Percy
And run as fast as you can
along the shining beach, on the rubble, or the dust.
Then, go to sleep.
Give up your body heat, your beating heart.
Then, trust.
Shining Forth - Meister Eckhart
In times of doubt I forget That You are not a God Of thoughts, to be found In concepts or theories But are the source of My life and radiance That shines forth in all That is, and then I remember: Mine is the work of learning To see You as the radiance That shines forth in all that is, Even in the dark. Even in me.
