“Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing
and rightdoing there is a field.
I'll meet you there.

“We have probably wondered in our many lonesome moments if there is one corner in this competitive, demanding world where it is safe to be relaxed, to expose ourselves to someone else, and to give unconditionally.

― Henri Nouwen
