Native American Lore of the Threefold Miracle:
the miracle that things exist at all
the miracle that living things exist
the miracle that living things can be conscious of themselves.

  Through many dangers, toils and snares,
  We have already come;
  'Tis grace has brought us safe thus far,
  And grace will lead us home.

  Amazing Grace
  John Newton, 1779





  Efforts and sacrifice may have to be undertaken to succeed towards a goal which may not be reached.

"I would rather live in a world where my life is surrounded by mystery than live in a world so small that my mind could comprehend it."

Henry Emerson Fosdick (1878-1969)



Work like you don’t need the money,
          Love like you’ve never been hurt,
                  and Dance like no one is watching.”


Satchel Paige
