What exists is a godly existence, a divine existence. God not as a person but as a presence certainly exists.

If you have not known yourself you will never know God. ~Rajneesh

Even if I had expected it, even if I had known what I was going to do with my life, it would have knocked the wind out of me.

So what can you do to stop yourself from tilting and falling all over again? ~Amy Tan
