Follow your bliss

If you follow your bliss, you put yourself on a kind of track that has been there all the while, waiting for you, and the life that you ought to be living is the one you are living. Wherever you are—if you are following your bliss, you are enjoying that refreshment, that life within you, all the time.


~Joseph Campbell

In wildness is the preservation of the world, Henry David Thoreau - Earth Day

The West of which I speak is but another name for the Wild, and what I have been preparing to say is, that in Wildness is the preservation of the World. Every tree sends its fibers forth in search of the Wild. The cities import it at any price. Men plow and sail for it. From the forest and wilderness come the tonics and barks which brace mankind. 

Spend time in the wilderness

Whoever joins God’s liberation movement must be content to spend time in the wilderness, to live in tents and not know what the morrow brings.
