Here are the daily quotes for April of 2006. We hope you enjoy them!

Bless us, dark earth as we give back
that which we have received
as we make a forest of blessing a ridge of blessing
for the future to grow upon.
–Chinook Psalter

And to tell the truth I don’t want to let go of the wrists
of idleness, I don’t want to sell my life for money,
I don’t even want to come in out of the rain.
–Mary Oliver

May the gentleness of spring rains
soften the tensions within us,
And the power of ocean waves
steady and strengthen us.
–Janet Schaffran and Pat Kozak

Water flows from high in the mountains
Water runs deep in the Earth.
Miraculously, water comes to us,
and sustains all life.
–Thich Nhat Hanh

Spring, and no one can be still,
with all the messages coming through.
–Rumi

This is the blessing for sun after long rain:
Now everything shakes itself free and rises.
–Marge Piercy

A woman remembers that she can be both fierce and generous at the same time. Rage is not like a kidney stone–if you wait long enough, it will pass. No, no. You must take right action. Then it will pass, and more creation will come to your life.
–Clarissa Pinkola Estes

Whenever anyone has offended me, I try to raise my soul so high that the offense cannot reach it.
–Rene Descartes

I fear purity; I fear it very much; it is a dangerous idea. I am a scientist and I know that nothing alive is pure. To be pure is to be impervious to change, to mixture. Change and mixture is our lot, our lot as living things. . . I am in love with the idea of mess. The mess is our only hope against the tyranny of the pure.
–Novelist Mary Gordon, speaking as a Cambodian doctor
