“to live in this world

you must be able
to do three things
to love what is mortal;
to hold it

against your bones knowing
your own life depends on it;
and, when the time comes to let it go,
to let it go”
― Mary Oliver, New and Selected Poems, Volume One

“And all shall be well. And all shall be well. And all manner of things shall be exceeding well.”

“I bought salvation from a man on the street. He said, "Go down to the beach and let the waves wash your feet.”
