One of my patients this morning is a homeless woman addicted to meth whom I’ve know for many years. She was at one point on the exam table, rocking and sobbing and repeating, “I just want to go home.” I just sat with her and gave her the space to come undone. There have been…
I could hardly agree with Bergson more.
“An increase in the material means at the disposal of humanity may even present dangers unless it is accompanied by a corresponding spiritual effort.” Philosopher and author Henri Bergson, awarded the 1927 Nobel Prize in Literature, reflected on the moral challenges of progress…
Attention is the rarest and purest form of generosity. --Simone Weil
The recovery of your sick, or the return of your absent friend, or some other favorable event, raises your spirits, and you think good days are preparing for you. Do not believe it. Nothing can bring you peace but yourself. —Ralph Waldo Emerson
Can confirm.
The state of mind which enables a man to do work of this kind is akin to that of the religious worshiper or the lover; the daily effort comes from no deliberate intention or program, but straight from the heart. -- A. Einstein, as mentioned in Principles of Research (1918)…
okay, this is literally THE photo of ALL time.
Immense planning and technical precision was required for this absolutely preposterous (but real) view: I captured my friend @BlackGryph0n transiting the sun during a skydive. This might be the first photo of it's kind in existence. See a video of this moment in the reply 👇
There is a field beyond right and wrong. I will meet you there. —Rumi
Despite how certainty feels, it is neither a conscious choice nor even a thought process. Certainty and similar states of “knowing what we know” arise out of involuntary brain mechanisms that, like love or anger, function independently of reason. —Robert Burton, On Being Certain…
My father was a Naval Special Warfare Operator (SEAL) during the Vietnam era (front row center). He led an undesignated, specially trained team on countless missions, about which I know little. I do know, however, that he brought the war home with him after he left the Teams, and…
How far you go in life depends on your being tender with the young, compassionate with the aged, sympathetic with the striving, and tolerant of the weak and strong. Because someday you will have been all of these. --George Washington Carver
This is really wonderful. A visitor from another solar system that may well be older than our solar system. I think with all the nonsense around this comet we’re in danger of missing how fascinating it is (and how much we’ll learn from a scientific point of view!)
Just captured interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS from Sabadell Observatory barely an hour ago — a bit blurry due to its low altitude, but still amazing to see! ☄️✨ #3IATLAS #Astronomy
I take care of my anger, my fear, and my pain. I do not see them as enemies, or as flaws; they are seasons of me as they are for all of us. Indulged or repressed, they strengthen and can cause such harm. Loved and given space, they naturally return to the silence from which they…
I do not love the world because I believe it will make it a better place, or because I’m happy with what it has given me. I love the world and all its denizens because I cannot do otherwise.
The quality of our life depends on the quality of the seeds that lie deep in our consciousness. —Thich Nhat Hanh
beauty is life when life unveils her holy face. but you are life and you are the veil. beauty is eternity gazing at itself in a mirror. but you are eternity and you are the mirror. -khalil gibran
The deciduous trees are beautiful in their summer emerald glory, in the resplendent autumn dying of their leaves as sunlight fades, but even in their woody, fractal branching whose barrenness implies the eventual return of the light.
