Infinitely More

The fantasy is out there somewhere. The reality is here and now.

The fantasy is being crowned and a royal mantel placed upon you. The reality is far more noble than receiving a reward.

What is gilded shines about one micron's depth. What shines through from the inside out, achieved by great effort and at great cost is infinitely more.

Inner Peace Is Over-rated

I have tormented myself at times for my lack of serenity. I used to believe that being spiritual was being unaffected by things. Now I believe the opposite.

Rest may be had in peace and quiet, but discoveries are more often made in the midst of where the trouble is.
