Be thirsty, heart...



Be thirsty heart,
seek forever without a rest.

Let this soundless longing
hidden deep inside you
be the source
of every word you say.

Seize the Day

Let your every deed and word and thought be those of one who might depart from this life this very moment.

—Marcus Aurelius in "The Present Moment" by Jack Petranker

Blessings to all this and every day :)
