Missing enthusiasm

Ask yourself what sets your soul on fire. Where is the underlying beauty? Does it inspire you to create, to act, or to protect? Once you are aware of this beauty, you’ll be attuned to the elements of beauty that surround you each and every day.

Awaken the Soul — BuDhaBlog

What is it that sets our souls on fire? For many, it’s simple. It’s the pure force of beauty.

A quotation by Crowell, Grace Noll

The mocking bird is music-mad to-night,

He thinks the stars are notes;

That he must sing each spattered star, and be

A choir of many throats.

The earth is his cathedral, and its dome

Is all the light-pricked sky;

The pear-tree is his choir loft, and there

He flings his mad songs high.

Grace Noll Crowell (1877-1969) American poet

“Music-Mad,” Good Housekeeping (Jun 1923)
