... because all that glitters is not gold

As part of the universe, I am grateful for the wisdom of ages past, for the many men and women, co-pilgrims before me and with me, whose words serve as guiding lights in my journey.

All is on loan

All of life is filled with loss and with letting go. For the one who believes that all is on loan, this is to be expected. Not that this expectation cripples the spirit of joy. Just the opposite is true: the present moment is treasured and enjoyed all the more because it is so precious and so fleeting.
From "Praying our Goodbyes", by Joyce Rupp
