Pruning and trimming and growing and paying close attention to the plants and whether they’re getting enough water and if their roots are deep enough.

Life in the age to come. Earthy.” ~ Rob Bell

People don’t understand that… No one knows my personal relationship with God and it’s not up to me to prove that to anyone.” ~ Beyonce Knowles
- “We can’t have an idea of what life should look like, about how spirit should be manifesting as our very life, because all of those ideas would just be products of the past – something we learned, imagined, or desired.

It’s the mind humbled, on its knees, with bare feet and free of the known.” ~ Adyashanti

I felt the easy night breeze on the palms of my bare feet. This kind of thing — a spontaneous handstand–isn’t something a disembodied cool blue soul can do, but a human being can do it. We have hands; we can stand on them if we want to. That’s our privilege. That’s the joy of a mortal body. And that’s why God needs us. Because God loves to feel things through our hands.” ~ Elizabeth Gilbert

My broken heart -I tried that, but it skimmed,flat, over the frozen lake.She came from a long, long way,but I saw her at last, walking,my daughter, my girl, across the fields,In bare feet, bringing all spring’s flowersto her mother’s house. I swearthe air softened and warmed as she moved,the blue sky smiling, none too soon,with the small shy mouth of a new moon.” ~ Carol Ann Duffy

- “Love That’s it: The cashless commerce. The blanket always too short. The loose connexion. To search behind the horizon. To brush fallen leaves with four shoes and in one’s mind to rub bare feet. To let and rent hearts; or in a room with shower and mirror, in a hired car, bonnet facing the moon, wherever innocence stops and burns its programme, the word in falsetto sounds different and new each time. Today, in front of a box office not yet open, hand in hand crackled the hangdog old man and the dainty old woman. The film promised love.” ~ Gunter Grass
- “Riley was quiet for a minute. She gathered her blanket all around her. “Paul always loved you, Alice. He knows I know that. I know he loves me, too. But it’s different.” Alice opened her mouth, but nothing came out at first. “He loved me once. But I think that part is over,” she said slowly. “No, it’s not. It hasn’t even begun.” Riley took Alice’s bare foot in her hand and squeezed it. “I told him, though, that he better be good to you. When you came along, I said I’d share you, but I told him to remember that you’re my sister. I loved you first.”” ~ Ann Brashares
