Pain has an element of blank;
It cannot recollect
When it began, or if there was
A time when it was not.
It has no future but itself,
Its infinite realms contain
Its past, enlightened to perceive
New periods of pain.
— Emily Dickinson

Delighted to learn that a #quote of mine is featured in an #art exhibition, in #Washington #DC called 'Eye Contact: creating a connection'
I’ve collaborated with #video & recording #artists in the past, but it’s always a pleasant surprise to discover words of mine are inspiring artists behind my back 😊
Thanks, Barbara Kirkpatrick Hollinger curator of Sacred Threads, the national quilt and fiber art exhibit. 🙏🏼

"What thou lovest well remains,
the rest is dross
What thou lov’st well shall not be reft from thee
What thou lov’st well is thy true heritage"

An imperturbable demeanor comes from perfect patience.
Quiet minds cannot be perplexed or frightened, but go on in fortune and misfortune at their own private pace like a clock during thunderstorm.

The True Way is along a rope that is not spanned high in the air, but only just above the ground.
It seems intended more to cause stumbling than to be walked upon.

As in the physical realm,
so in the spiritual —
it takes only one moment
of inattention to slip and fall.
