The interior place where we experience God is the same kind of place and as real as the place here we experience music and poetry.
~ by Karen Armstrong
Geese appear high over us,
pass, and the sky closes. Abandon,
as in love or sleep, holds
them to their way, clear,
in the ancient faith: what we need
is here. And we pray, not
for new earth or heaven, but to be
quiet in heart, and in eye
clear. What we need is here.
