“Because wholeness and meaning in life are not the products of what you have or don’t have, what you’ve done or haven’t done. You are already a whole person and possess a life of infinite meaning and purpose because of who you are—a child of God.”
― Neil T. Anderson, Victory Over the Darkness: Realize the Power of Your Identity in Christ

“I do not know the day
my pain will end yet
in the little garden
I had them plant
seeds of autumn flowers”

“the wall iris
opens its buds:
before my eyes
the last spring
begins to fade”
― Shiki Masaoka
