Just start

"A year from now you may wish that you had started today."
/Karen Lamb/

I got this quote from AE-zine and thought it's good to put it here, as we often forget (at least it happens a lot for me) to start. I'm great at thinking and dreaming, but when it comes to reality and implementing my plans I tend to put this moment off, especially when it is something that seems difficult or require lots of effort and perseverance to complete. To practice making changes in my life and habits and keep with what I decided to do I started this great '21 challenge' at another great scrapper artist blog - Rhonna Farrer. I love the idea and hope it'll help me learn to reach my small and big goals . And even if not for the challenge it's worthy to check the page to read all those inspiring quotes Rhonna put there and her amazing works of art.

Taize

Kilka fotek z tegorocznego pobytu w Taize. I jeszcze piękna modlitwa, którą czytano podczas modlitwy wieczornej w dniu rocznicy śmierci br. Roger.

A few photos from this summer at Taize. And a beautiful prayer that was read during the evening service on the anniversary of Br. Roger's death.

God of peace,
on this day we remember your servant, our brother Roger.
We give thanks for his life.
All he was remains so present.
He opened many ways forward:
enable us, in his steps,
to be seekers of reconciliation in your Church and to the human family.
Like him, we would like to be Christ's poor, filled with the fire of your love.
Your Holy Spirit comes to reawaken goodness of heart in us.
Then we can welcome your peace
and
make life beautiful for those you have entrusted to us.

In the eye of the storm
is a centre of perfect peace,
where our deepest desire
is embraced in God's own desire of us.

This is a quotation from a great book: Landmarks - An Ignatian Journey by Margaret Silf.

W samym środku burzy
jest miejsce gdzie odczuwamy prawdziwy pokój,
gdzie nasze najgłębsze pragnienie
jest otulone pragnieniem Boga wobec nas.

To cytat ze świetnej książki: Landmarks - An Ignatian Journey napisanej przez Margaret Silf. Niestety wersji polskiej brak. Mam nadzieję, że zostanie przetłumaczona. Sam nawet chciałabym to zrobić, ale póki co niestety. English only ;-)
