Reaching For The Light ... p. 146


“ Take fast hold 
   of instruction …
   she is thy life.”
— Proverbs 4:13
King James Version of the Bible

BECOMING … p. 146

Growing older, or, ageing, is nothing less than the Divine gift of Be-coming. We do ourself a disservice throughout our lifetime if we allow body and mind to fall prey to the dictates of Time. Let Time run its own inexorable course. Our purpose, which may well be the business of a lifetime, is to “Know Thyself.” The lesson learned is transformational: We come to know wherein our true, our enduring, human values lie. All else in life is but dross. — Garry D. Kilbourn
