Surely something wonderful is sheltered inside you. I say this with
all confidence, because I happen to believe we are all walking
repositories of buried treasure. I believe this is one of the oldest and
most generous tricks the universe plays on us human beings, both for
its own amusement and for ours: The universe buries strange jewels deep
within us all, and then stands back to see if we can find them.
The hunt to uncover those jewels — that’s creative living.
The courage to go on that hunt in the first place — that’s what separates a mundane existence from a more enchanted one.
Elizabeth Gilbert, Big Magic: Creative Living Beyond Fear
What a miraculous post. Inspires and energizes and gives me hope. I must remember that in the darkest of souls is a jewel. Love the montage of a photo. Is that an elephant hidden inside?
