“There’s no answer, no problem-solving, simply awareness.”  (Everything Belongs, Richard Rohr)

Please forgive my typing errors in my earlier blog from today, if you saw them before TJ fixed them. I think I must have been half-asleep or something.

And a quote that speaks to that is this:

“The only true perfection available to us is the honest acceptance of our imperfection.” (Everything Belongs, Richard Rohr)

I’m chewing on this, too:

“You get a feeling when you look back on life that that’s all God really wants from us, to live in a body he made and enjoy the story and bond with us through the experience.” (A Million Miles in a Thousand Years, Donald Miller)

And finally, but never finally:

“Spirituality is about seeing. It’s not about earning or achieving. It’s about relationship rather than results or requirements. Once you see, the rest follows. You don’t need to push the river, because you are in it. The life is lived within us, and we learn how to say yes to that life.” (Everything Belongs, Richard Rohr)

Ummm, go buy the book already.

I wrote these four quotes on index cards earlier this evening, but I haven’t decided where to post them yet. For now, I’m just toting them around with me from spot to spot: kitchen table, desk, coffee table, bathroom counter. I guess I will put them by my bedside tonight.
