I still get wildly enthusiastic about little things…. I play with leaves. I skip down the street and run against the wind. I never water my garden without soaking myself. – Leo F. Buscaglia, Bus 9 to Paradise
Some people feel guilty about their anxieties and regard them as a defect of faith but they are afflictions, not sins. Like all afflictions, they are, if we can so take them, our share in the passion of Christ. – C. S. Lewis
