The pearl of great price

The seeker is a finder who discovers peace cannot be found outside himself.

One love

Dig one hole. Dig it deep.

The psalmist did not say, “Two things have I desired…”

“If you put sincere effort in one place, the gold in the stone will break for you.”

Sanctum sanctorum

Where is it, this “pearl of great price”?

Where it’s always been—inside the clam.

Likewise, the chalice, suspended from a bough of the great oak in the walled-off garden of the grown-over castle.

“Look inside yourself.”
