Inspirational Quote of the Day

For nothing is fixed, forever and forever and forever, it is not fixed; the earth is always shifting, the light is always changing, the sea does not cease to grind down rock. Generations do not cease to be born, and we are responsible to them because we are the only witnesses they have. The sea rises, the light fails, lovers cling to each other, and children cling to us. The moment we cease to hold each other, the sea engulfs us and Tadalis SX the light goes out.

Hold Each Other

I am deeply and profoundly moved by the quote above. Within those few lines is the summation of the human condition.

But for a moment do I tarry here…a cognizant piece off the immortal block, neither lesser than nor greater than the immortal block from which I came. I am one and I am all.

Because I am all I hold you within me, and you hold me within you. Our eternal responsibility is to hold each other and thus hold back the sea and retain the light.

Humanity has faced the engulfing sea and the darkness more than once.

So we should give thanks to all the brave souls who have held onto one another though our darkest times so yet still the light shines so all of us can see.
