“It was years ago, but I remember it clearly. I was walking along the shore of the lake in the middle of the day, and there in the sun, a good 10 yards out, was a duck curled into itself, asleep. With it slick tufted head tucked into its body, it bobbed peacefully in the lapping of the water.

This little scene undid me, for here was an ultimate lesson in trust. Without any intent or knowledge of itself, this little duck, asleep in the womb of the world, was a deep and wordless teacher. If only we could surrender this completely to the mystery of life, we would be carried and renewed.”
-Mark Nepo, The Book of Awakening

“It is a vain and unprofitable thing to conceive either grief or joy for future things which perhaps will never come about.”
