“The sun is perfect and you woke this morning. You have enough language in your mouth to be understood. You have a name, and someone wants to call it. Five fingers on your hand and someone wants to hold it. If we start there, every beautify thing that has existed, and will ever exist is possible. If we start there, everything for a moment is right in the world.”
Warsan Shire
This is my favourite gratitude poem. It is so beautifully penned.
“The world as we have created it is a process of our thinking. It cannot be changed without changing our thinking”
Albert Einstein
“Whatever a man sees in his mind, does not doubt in his heart, and lives as if he has already received, will come to pass. That is the secret most men will never understand. Remember this: heaven is here.” He tapped Agisillus’s temple. “In here you can come to know the powers of heaven or the distress of hell. What you experience is up to you.”
