Sunday Sentence: Living Beautifully

September 1, 2013

Sunday Sentence: The best sentence(s) from this week, out of context and without commentary. Inspired by David Abrams at The Quivering Pen.

Living Beautifully
Shambhala, October 2012

What the fundamental ambiguity of being human points out is that as much as we want to, we can never say, “This is the only true way. This is how it is. End of discussion.”
