Something to Think About

    I have one major rule: everybody is right. More specifically, everybody— including me— has some important pieces of the truth, and all of those pieces need to be honored, cherished, and included in a more gracious, spacious, and compassionate embrace.
    Ken Wilber


    The first step to getting the things you want out of life is this: Decide what you want.
    Ben Stein


    Politician, flag & priest. In all the world I love them least. When nations wage their bloody wars, 'tis they alone have been the cause.

Rudolf Steiner’s Calendar of the SoulForty-second Week(Originally January 19-25)

This hour of winter gloom

Impels the soul to manifest

Its inner strength,

To guide it into darkness,

Anticipate through warmth of heart

The senses’ revelation.

* translation by John Thomson.

_____________________

In the winter mood of dark and gloom

the soul finds her own strong impulse

to guide herself down into the darkness.

There she can witness

through the hearts own warmth, subtle

harbingers of impending sense revelations.

* translation by Dennis Klocek.

____________________

In this gloom of winter,
my soul’s own strength is revealed
in its yearning urge to pass through
darkness and oblivion—

to feel its way forward—

anticipating the dawn
of sense revelation
through the warmth
of my heart.

* translation by Tom Mellett.
