There is no planet, sun, or star could hold you,
if you but knew what you are.

One filled with joy preaches without preaching.

- Mother Teresa

If the sight of the blue skies fills you with joy,

if a blade of grass springing up in the fields has power to move you,

if the simple things of nature have a message that you understand,

rejoice, for your soul is alive.
