Where is the life we have lost in the living?

"Endless invention, endless experiment,
Brings knowledge of motion, but not of stillness;
Knowledge of speech, but not of silence
Knowledge of words, and ignorance of the Word...

Where is the life we have lost in the living?
Where is the wisdom we have lost in knowledge?
Where is the knowledge we have lost in information?"

{T.S. Eliot}


Today I walked through the woods, and realized how much I miss them.
Today I sat in the stillness, and realized how desperately I need it.
Today the Father whispered, and today my heart answered.
