The main thing in life is not to be afraid to be human. Pablo Casals
Once we ourselves have suffered, the suffering of others falls on our softened hearts. Henri Nouwen.
You cannot live the afternoon of life according to the programme of life’s morning.
The mind grows by addition. The spirit grows by subtraction.
Being spiritual is not the same as being religious.
Religion is about what you believe and do. Spirituality is to do with quality. It is a thing of the heart.
Religion draws lines. Spirituality reads between them. It tends to avoid definitions, boundaries and battles.
It is inclusive and holistic. It crosses frontiers and makes connections.
It is characterised by sensitivity, gentleness, depth, openness, flow, feeling, quietness, wonder, paradox, being, waiting, acceptance, awareness, healing and inner journey. Brian Woodcock
