“To allow oneself to be carried away by a multitude of conflicting concerns, to surrender to too many demands, to commit oneself to too many projects, to want to help everyone in everything, is to succumb to the violence of our times.”

     – Thomas Merton

Not much time today – i think i’ve been checking in the last couple of days anyhow.  Nothing much new to say here.  Here’s another thought for the day:

“If you want to identify me, ask me not where I live, or what I like to eat, or how I comb my hair, but ask me what I am living for, in detail, ask me what I think is keeping me from living fully for the thing I want to live for.”

     – Thomas Merton
