A quote that is blowing my mind, even though I know I haven't fully grasped it

"When I accept in the depth of my being that the ultimate accomplishment of my life is me--the person I've become and who other persons are because of me--then living in the wisdom of accepted tenderness is not a technique, not a craft, not the Carnegian ploy of how to win friends and influence people, but a way of life, a distinctive and engaged presence to God, other ragamuffins, and myself."

-Brendan Manning, The Wisdom of Tenderness


Soundtrack: David Gray, "January Rain"
