Hopping between the blogs of friends and acquaintances, I found this quote that I like very much.

“You are always nearer the divine and the true sources of your power than you think. The lure of the distant and the difficult is deceptive. The great opportunity is where you are. Do not despise your own place and hour. Every place is under the stars; every place is the centre of the world. Stand in your own door and you have eight thousand miles of solid ground beneath you, and all the sidereal splendors overhead.”

John Borroughs in “The Divine Soul,” April, 1908.
