Quote by Melissa Marr

“Grasping the staff, Donia pressed her mouth to Beira’s still body and inhaled.

And she was healed, stronger than she’d ever been.”

“In the now, the wanderer mind finds a purpose. Like a wayward ship finally dropping anchor in a tranquil bay, it experiences respite. The now, the simple reality of what is, serves as a beacon, illuminating the path for the wanderer. When the mind ceases to roam and learns to reside in the present, it finds itself not in a barren wasteland, but in a fertile ground where the seeds of intention can be sown, where the fruits of action can be reaped.”
