It is not by meticulous care in avoiding all contaminations that we can keep our [spiritual body] clean and give it grace, but by urging it to give vigorous expression to its inner life in the very midst of all the dust and heat and hurts.
~ Rabindranath Tagore




Wow, that is some quote. Had to read it several times to really get it. I hope it’s true…I think it is:)
I think it is too, Bookbabie. 🙂
Holy fire! Wowzers what a fire photo and title! Indeed. Great quote…. I haven’t thought of it that way. Indeed, again.
Thank you, Anna. 🙂
Beautiful photo and the quote is perfect for the shot – it really gives you pause to think.
Thank you, KalaMarie. 🙂
Wow. I mean, wow!
Thanks, Am. 🙂
Great quote…. as in, having faith in good times is easy. It’s when things get down and dirty that it is difficult but that is when it is proven.
Love the fluidity of the shapes created by the embers and flames.
Thanks, Norm. Good to see you out and about again. 🙂
That’s what drew me to this photo — the fluidity.
I’m all for the vigorous sentiment, but I have to admit, there is something about the warmth of that photo that smacks of pleasant fireplace and makes me want to curl up there with a good book. Bonus points for dog at feet, and an occasional crackle from the fire. Is there a teakettle on the stove?
