You have your brush
You have your colors
Paint Paradise!
Then Go In

"The Peace of Wild Things"
When despair for the world grows in me
and I wake in the night at the least sound
in fear of what my life and my children's lives
may be,
I go and lie down where the wood drake
rests in his beauty on the water, and the great
heron feeds.
I come into the peace of wild things
who do not tax their lives with forethought
of grief. I come into the presence of still water.
And I feel above me the day-blind stars
waiting with their light. For a time
I rest in the grace of the world, and am free.
Wendell Berry
Ever since happiness heard your name
It has been running through the streets
trying to find you.
Hafiz
Ring out the bells that still can ring
Put away your perfect offering
There is a crack, a crack in everything
That's how the light gets in.
Leonard Cohen
