To be awake inside your breathing.


O Beloved,your way of knowing is amazing!
The way you recognize every creature
even before it appears.
The way you gaze into the face
of every human being
and see all your works gazing back at you....
O what a miracle
to be awake inside your breathing.

-Hildegard of Bingen (Symphonia)
