Mark Nepo Quote
Now, sometimes at night, when the dog is asleep and the owl is beginning to stare into what no one ever sees, I stand on the deck and feel the honey of night spill off the stars, feel it coat the earth, the trees, the minds of children half asleep, feel the stillness evaporate all notions of fame into the unwatched space that waits for light. In this undistorted silence, the presence of God is a kiss. It is here in this unwatched space that peace begins.

I have felt this way so many times and never known how to say it. This is close to the most brilliant piece of prose I have ever read. Have you not stood on the edge of evening with night coming down and felt the exact emotion these powerful words evoke?
Since it is Wednesday this is just for fun.
Have a great day.
Nick
