"Often the search proves more profitable than the goal." -E.L. Konigsburg, From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler, 1967
There's an old saying that the journey, not the destination, is what is important. What if what we are actually searching for is the search itself? Here we are, somehow we got ourselves at this point in time, at this place on earth, and yet we know there is "more." Just that knowingness leads us to places, both physical and spiritual, that allow us to experience more of our Selves. -Lissa Coffey
No joy is so great in a life of seclusion as that of gardening. No matter what the soil may be, sandy or heavy clay, on a hill or a slope, it will serve well."
Walafrid Strabo, Hortulus, c. 840 AD
"We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars." Oscar Wilde

The religion of the future will be a cosmic religion. It should transcend personal God and avoid dogma and theology. Covering both the natural and the spiritual, it should be based on a religious sense arising from the experience of all things natural and spiritual as a meaningful unity. Buddhism answers this description...
If there is any religion that could cope with modern scientific needs, it would be Buddhism.

"The world is so exquisite, with so much love and moral depth, that there is no reason to deceive ourselves with pretty stories for which there's little good evidence. Far better, it seems to me, in our vulnerability, is to look Death in the eye and to be grateful every day for the brief but magnificent opportunity that life provides." Carl Sagan (one of my heros')
