JOY

Joy is the most infallible sign of the presence of God.

- Pierre Teilhard de Chardin

everything belongs

Everything belongs. No one needs to be punished, scapegoated, or excluded.

connected

We cannot live for ourselves alone. Our lives are connected by a thousand invisible threads, and along these sympathetic fibers, our actions run as causes and return to us as results.

-Herman Melville

Howard Street

true threshold

... each of us has to inhabit his or her own soul in order to find out who he or she is and where the intimacy of his or her heart touches the world. No one else can tell you that; the maps that others have are of no use. Each life must find its true threshold, that edge where the individual gift fits the outer hunger and where the outer gift fits the inner hunger.

- John O'Donohue

gratitude

Gratitude is the memory of the heart.

-ST. MARY EUPHRASIA PELLETIER
