“Precise, graceful, and generous, the poems in SuperLoop, seem to be born out of a deep, careful attention and a profound compassion. Sometimes the quiet observer, sometimes the kid in the center of the messed-up carnival, these poems are the fireflies you’ve missed all winter, the longed-for return of the bees. Unaffected and inherently hopeful, Callihan’s work is as merciful as it is moving.” SometimesSeemsKidsMovingBornAttentionCompassionReturnQuietProfoundWinterCarefulGenerousHopefulBeesPreciseObserversMercifulMessed UpFireflyCarnivals Author:Ada Limon
“After one arrives at the summit, after going through the total transformation of being...there is yet one more step to the completion of that journey: the return to the valley below, to the everyday world. Who it is that returns is not who began the climb in the first place. The being that comes back is quietness itself, is compassion and wisdom, is the truth of the ages. Whatever humble or elevated position that being holds within the community, he or she becomes a light for others on the way a statement of the freedom that comes from having touched the top of the mountain.” WorldWayInspirationalFirstsLightAgeCommunityCompassionStepsJourneyPositionReturnMountainTransformationEverydayHumbleStatementsClimbsTouchedValleysSummitBeing ThereCompletionQuietness Author:Ram Dass
“Compassion goes on giving, but knows no feeling of giving, knows no feeling that "I am the giver." And then existence goes on responding in thousands of ways. You give a little love and from everywhere love starts flowing. The man of compassion is not trying to snatch anything away, he is not greedy. He does not wait for the return, he goes on giving. He goes on getting too, but that is not in his mind.” KnowsMenWayGivingTryingMindLittlesDoeFeelingsWaitingExistenceCompassionHe ManGoes OnReturnGreedyGiverRespondingLittle Love Author:Rajneesh
“I no longer become angry. I not only do not say angry words, I do not even think angry thoughts! If someone does an unkind thing to me I feel only compassion instead of resentment. Even upon those who cause suffering I look with deep compassion, knowing the harvest of sorrow that lies in store for them. If there were those who hated me, I would love them in return, knowing that hatred can only be overcome by love, and knowing that there is good in all human beings which can be reached by a loving approach.” IfsThinkingFeelsHumansLooksDoeLyingSufferingCausesHuman BeingsCompassionKnowingReturnSorrowApproachHatredOvercomingAngryStoresHatedResentmentHarvestUnkindAngry Words Book:Peace Pilgrim: Her Life and Work in Her Own Words Source: Peace Pilgrim: Her Life and Work in Her Own Words
