Departure of the Winged Ship

a part of a hymn

"My goal is God Himself, not joy, nor peace,

Nor even blessing, but Himself, my God;

'Tis His to lead me there-not mine, but His-

At any cost, dear Lord, by any road."

"Lord, bid me come to thee upon the water." -Matthew 14:28

"Mediocrity is underrated." - Mary-Louise Parker

"never give up,
no never give up,
if you're looking for something easy
then you might as well give it up."

"Go, eat your food with gladness, and drink your wine with a joyful heart, for it is now that God favors what you do. Always be clothed in white, and always anoint your head with oil. Enjoy life with your wife, whom you love, all the days of this meaningless life that God has given you under the sun - all your meaningless days. For this is your lot in life and in your toilsome labor under the sun. Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with all your might, for in the grave, where you are going, there is neither working nor planning nor knowledge nor wisdom." - Ecclesiastes 9:7-10
