“In our stillness, we acknowledge God's greatness and we are at peace in our life. Stillness saturates us in the Presence of God.”
― E'yen A. Gardner, Humbly Submitting to Change - The Wilderness Experience

“My days were not days of the week, bearing the stamp of any heathen deity, nor were they minced into hours and fretted by the ticking of a clock; for I lived like the Puri Indians, of whom it is said that “for yesterday, today, and tomorrow they have only one word, and they express the variety of meaning by pointing backward for yesterday forward for tomorrow, and overhead for the passing day.” This was sheer idleness to my fellow-townsmen, no doubt; but if the birds and flowers had tried me by their standard, I should not have been found wanting. A man must find his occasions in himself, it is true. The natural day is very calm, and will hardly reprove his indolence.”
― Henry David Thoreau, Walden or, Life in the Woods
