Nada te turbe

Mount Tamalpais viewed from Mare Island (15 March 2005)


Nada te turbe;
nada te espante;
todo se pasa;
Dios no se muda,
la pacïencia
todo lo alcanza.
Quien a Dios tiene,
nada le falta.
Solo Dios basta.

Saint Teresa of Ávila
(1515-1582)


Alert readers may have noticed alternation between angry or downcast posts (the political ones) and calming or uplifting ones. I am clearly trying to bring myself back to center but I cannot ignore the atrocities being done in our name (around the world and on the Hill).
