When one tugs at a single thing in nature,
he finds it attached to the rest of the world.
  ~ John Muir




A bird does not sing
because it has an answer.
It sings because it has a song.

  ~ Chinese Proverb




It is not over,
this birthing.
There are always newer skies
into which
God can throw stars.
  ~ Ann Weems
