“Yesterday, she said, referring to the collective past of her tribe, the people of these forests knew the secret. They made the finest silk thread from the cocoon of a beautiful sleeping butterfly. The women reeled the silk thread on the spinning wheel, slowly and gently. Such delicate work it was, that the silk remembered, at last, the moth which had created it. And the women were awed at the silver shine of the silk produced. If the silk is so divine, they thought, what must be the beauty of the butterfly waiting to be born? They stopped breaking the cocoons and looked for the crimson wings of the butterflies emerging from the torn nests of raw silk. The sight took them aback. They became sages and storytellers. My mother’s mother was one of them.”

“The toiling majority have long realised the fraud. You do not find that real troubles give way to Christmas feasts; rather, you will notice that it is the feasts which have to give way where real troubles are present. Even in our limited experience we know many, and those not amongst the most oppressed, who sigh with relief when the season is over, and thank God that Christmas does come but once a year.”

“The true gospel stands in clear contrast to the false teachings that abound, calling sinners to repentance and faith in Christ's finished work. Those who propagate error face a grave accountability before God unless they turn from their ways. Genuine repentance would be marked by a willingness to abandon false doctrine, close down misleading ministries, and humbly submit to biblical authority. True transformation involves surrendering to the teachings of Scripture and aligning one's life with the truth of the Gospel. Without this radical change, their ministries remain a stumbling block to the flock and a discredit to the name of Christ. Only a return to sound doctrine and a life reflecting the fruit of repentance can restore integrity and honor to their witness.”

“Pick up a pinecone and count the spiral rows of scales. You may find eight spirals winding up to the left and 13 spirals winding up to the right, or 13 left and 21 right spirals, or other pairs of numbers. The striking fact is that these pairs of numbers are adjacent numbers in the famous Fibonacci series: 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21... Here, each term is the sum of the previous two terms. The phenomenon is well known and called phyllotaxis. Many are the efforts of biologists to understand why pinecones, sunflowers, and many other plants exhibit this remarkable pattern. Organisms do the strangest things, but all these odd things need not reflect selection or historical accident. Some of the best efforts to understand phyllotaxis appeal to a form of self-organization. Paul Green, at Stanford, has argued persuasively that the Fibonacci series is just what one would expects as the simplest self-repeating pattern that can be generated by the particular growth processes in the growing tips of the tissues that form sunflowers, pinecones, and so forth. Like a snowflake and its sixfold symmetry, the pinecone and its phyllotaxis may be part of order for free”

“Someone once told me to always live for 5 am sunrises and 5 pm sunsets, where you'll see colors in the sky that usually don't belong. Live for the road trips and bike rides, with music in ears and wind in hair. Live for the days when you're surrounded by your favorite people who make you realize that the world is not a cold, harsh place. Live for the little things.”
