Daily Thought

Captivity begins once you concede that you are small and the world is big.

Once you believe that, next you are likely to believe it will step on you, and so you fear it.

And then you come to obey it, then to run after it. And then you are its slave, thirsting for water for the soul yet unable to remember where to look for it.

To fear the world is to deny the Oneness of its Creator.
