Quote by Donna Goddard

“Gratitude grows from the soil of letting go and surrender. It is only possible to surrender when we are humble enough to acknowledge the authority of the Divine over our life and everything in it. We lean on the immense and unlimited resources of Life. We become lighter, brighter, and more radiant. The never-ending problems and worries of life recede into the background and often disappear. Our being is filled with the loveliness of everything good and a knowing that good is naturally drawn to us and wishes to make its home within the walls of our garden.”

“If one is interested in spiritual seeing, takes pleasure from reading or hearing uplifting and truthful spiritual ideas, and desires peace, love, and happiness, then one is bound to find it.

“From the reed flute streams a melody.... cut from the agony of deeps.... for carved are the holes... and thus emerges the flute from a reed........ as the ache that enters your deeps... turns your heart to the sweetest flute... and you become a vessel for a music that fills this earth... every longing is played by the reed flute into the breeze.... as agony cut you in pieces.. .there flew your achiest of aches.... but now the reed flute has you smiling playing the sweetest melody on your lips.... for they come not through the flute... but from your soul. of the deeps... as in agony you turn to the note of ecstasy .... for though your heart is torn asunder... yet altered are they in the reed notes.... as the flute lets the notes play with the winds....”

“Nu vedeți sufletul? Într-o zi o să-l vedeți. Nici ochii mei nu vad totdeauna sufletul. Este acea lumina nemuritoare care apare în forma de aura pe capetele sfinților in biserici. Asta li se vede sfinților in picturile murale bisericești: sufletul. Am auzit ca unii considera sufletul un fel de fórmula chimica. Probabil ca are si el o formula chimica. Dar taina ei n-o știe nimeni. Se pare ca si Dumnezeu a uitat-o.  Si de aia, noi oamenii, in ciuda tuturor greșelilor noastre,  supraviețuim. Insa noi nu suntem, sufletește, numai niste formule chimice”
