a pause in the moment... as much as I wish I could pause, rewind and replay, the next scene is always better than the last... ♥ play on, chica~
“Almost every day I have to write a letter to someone refusing an invitation to attend a conference, or a workshop, or to give talks on the contemplative life, or poetry, etc. I can see more and more clearly how for me this would be a sheer waste, a Pascalian diversion, participation in a common delusion. (For others, no; they have the grace and mission to go around talking.) For me what matters is silence, meditation—and writing; but writing is secondary. To willingly and deliberately abandon this to go out and talk would be stupidity—for me. And for others, retirement into my kind of solitude would be equally stupid. They could not do it—and I could not do what they do.”
-Thomas Merton, March 16, 1968
