Essential Invisible

Monday, June 7th, 2010

“Beside my chair is a saying in French.  It inspires me every day.  It’s a sentence from Saint-Exupery‘s The Little Prince,and it reads, ” L’essential est invisible pour les yeux.” (What is essential is invisible to your eyes.)  The closer we get to know the truth of that sentence, the closer I feel we get to wisdom.

That which has real value in life in any millennium is very simple.  Very deep and very simple!  It happens inside of us-in the “essential invisible” part of us, and that is what allows everyone to be a potential neighbor.”

Quote by Mr. Fred Rogers

Nourishing the Soul

Thursday, December 3rd, 2009

“It’s not the honors and the prizes and the fancy outsides of life that ultimately nourish our souls. It’s the knowing that we can be trusted, that we never have to fear the truth, that the bedrock of our very being is firm.”
