In the Now Thoughts

Listening to chant this morning, the words of David Steindl Rast come to me much like a prayer: “The quiet ecstasy of Gregorian chant calls to people of all faiths.  What is its timeless fascination?  The chant speaks to our hearts today because of its universal call to enter the now: to stop, to listen and to heed the message of this moment.  It speaks to the monk in all of us, to our soul, which longs for connection to an ultimate source of meaning and value.”

Amen.

“Many people die with their music still in them.  Why is this so?  Too often it is because they are always getting ready to live.  Before they know it, time runs out.” –Oliver Wendell Holmes


“When your life flashes before your eyes, make sure you’ve got plenty to watch.” –Author unknown, from a television commercial


Enjoy your day!
