WORK AT BEING AUTHENTIC AND NOT TRYING TO SHAPE YOURSELF TO FIT IN A MOULD - ONE SIZE FITS ALL. ITS UNCOMFORTABLE SOMETIMES, AND TAKES PRACTICE TO FEEL RIGHT BECAUSE OF OUR CONDITIONING TO CONFORM. IN THE LONG RUN WE WILL BE GRATEFUL TO BE ABLE TO SAY, I STUCK TO MY GUNS, AND I DID IT MY WAY.... A tree gives glory to God by being a tree. For in being what God means it to be it is obeying [God]. It “consents,” so to speak, to [Gods] creative love. It is expressing an idea which is in God and which is not distinct from the essence of God, and therefore a tree imitates God by being a tree” “How do you expect to arrive at the end of your journey if you take the road to another mans city? “In our creation, God asked a question and in our truly living; God answers the question.” “Every moment and every event of everymans life on earth plants something in his soul. For just as the wind carries thousands of winged seeds, so each moment brings with it germs of spiritual vitality that come to rest imperceptibly in the minds and wills of men.” “What we have to be is what we are.” ― Thomas Merton
