Simone Well:
"Every time we say 'Thy will be done,' we should have in mind all possible misfortunes and all possible blessings, because a blessing may be more difficult to accept than a misfortune. Better yet, we should have in mind nothing at all." I think this quote is really interesting. Gods will was to give us free will. So if we have free will then will God intervene when we say "Thy will be done"? If he does would that or wouldn't that be denying us of free will...

Franz Kafka:
"Between being lost and being found, there is the consciousness of being lost: the only true agony, as when a foot that was asleep begins to wake up." All I have to say is this is hilarious. I hate it when I wake up in the morning and I am actually really scared and freaked out because I can't find my arm. I'm like where is it. Where is it! Then I quickly realize its asleep next to me and I have to physically pick it up. LOL

Henry David Thoreau:
"When we are unhurried and wise, we perceive that only great and worthy things have any permanent and absolute existence, that petty fears and petty pleasures are but the shadow of reality." I really like this quote because its so true of the world today. We are constantly worried or consumed by stupid temporary pleasures. Whats the latest movie, video game, or whatever. If we would all just spend more time on our relationships we would be a lot happier as a whole.

Ralph Waldo Emerson:
"The true doctrine of omnipresences is that God reappears with all his parts in every moss and cobweb." Have you ever looked at a cobweb for a long time. I have stared for what seems to be forever. It amazes me that such a little animal can create something so intricate and sturdy. I look at the creativity put into such a small animal and I can't help but stand in awe. I see his fingerprints on everything.

Novalis:
"Marriage is the highest mystery." When I look at people like my parents I feel like I understand this quote. Their love, compassion, and connection are indescribable. Honestly its a complete mystery that two people could be so perfectly made for each other. My mom grew up in Pennsylvania and my dad in Washington state. They both ended up going to a religious school in LA where they met. I don't believe in coincidence.
