“It is part of my responsibility as a bridge builder to speak the truth about what's great about America, what we've done right, and what our less glorious moments.

“The most interesting people I know drink in life and savor every drop-the sweet and the sour. The good and the bad. The planned and the unplanned... Right in the midst of what seems to me to be a detour from the map, I'm often gifted with something precious and unforgettable. Capturing the moment is a choice, a way of life. It requires us to wake up, live life, and be present-here, there and everywhere. Sometimes that's scary; sometimes it's exhilarating. Always, it's an adventure I keep learning to welcome with a full and grateful heart.” PeopleKnowsWayHeartSometimesMomentsSeemsChoicesInterestingAdventureSweetGratitudeDrinkWake UpGratefulScaryWelcomeLive LifeMidstMapsGiftedMost InterestingSourExhilaratingUnforgettableDetoursKeep LearningGrateful Heart Author:Luci Swindoll

“It is the profoundest of cosmic ironies. The divine power, our true spiritual essence, does not achieve perfection until it hits the 'rock' bottom of the cosmos - the dense and crude earth. It remains imperfect until the moment of entombment for the simple reason that until that dark nadir is reached the experiential adventure of existence remains incomplete, and Self is not yet endowed with the entire spectrum of the light of consciousness - from spirit to matter - from the highest high to the lowest low.” DoeSelfMatterReasonMomentsLightEarthSpiritualSpiritDarkSimpleExistenceConsciousnessAchieveRocksDivineAdventureHighestLowsPerfectionEssenceRemainsBottomIronyCosmosCosmicImperfectLowestSpectrumIncompleteCrudeDenseDivine PowerNadir Book:The New Hermetics: 21st Century Magick for Illumination and Power Source: The New Hermetics: 21st Century Magick for Illumination and Power
“What outsiders discover in their adventures on the other side of the looking glass is the courage to repudiate self-contempt and recognise their “alienation” as a precious gift of freedom from arbitrary norms that they did not make and did not sanction. At the moment a person questions the validity of the rules, the victim is no longer a victim.” PersonsSelfMomentsSidesAdventureVictimGlassesContemptOutsidersNormArbitraryAlienationSanctionsRecogniseValidityPrecious Gifts Author:Jamake Highwater
“The most splendid moment of an adventure is not always the moment of fulfilment, not even the moment of conception, but the moment of first accomplishment, when the adventurer deliberately sets his face toward the new road, knowing that his boats are burned.” FirstsMomentsFacesKnowingAdventureBoatAccomplishmentConceptionBurnedSplendidFulfilmentAdventurerNew Roads Book:Max Source: Max
