"Holiness is reached not through effort or will, but by stopping; by an inward coming to rest; a place from which we can embody the spirit of all our holy days, a radical, inhabited simplicity, where we live in a kind of ongoing surprise and with some wonder and appreciation."

~ David Whyte

An attention exercise on the theme of rest barely disguised as a poem. 

The simple act of honouring one’s need for time and space, between the competing parts of our day, is age old.

To live is to be
uncertain.
Certainty comes
at the end.

~ Erica Jong
