“During these turbulent times we must remind ourselves repeatedly that life goes on. This we are apt to forget. But the wisdom of life transcends our wisdoms; the purpose of life outlasts our purposes; the process of life cushions our processes…
It is just as important as ever to attend to the little graces by which the dignity of our lives is maintained and sustained.
- Birds still sing;
- The stars continue to cast their gentle gleam over the desolation of battlefields;
- And the heart is still inspired by the kind word and the gracious deed.”
-Howard Thurman, Meditations of the Heart
