Today's Daily Inspiration


SEPTEMBER 27th

Don’t praise the lute
It is the skill of the luthier
that has given it life

It is the hands of the virtuoso
that brings forth
from its body and quivering strings,
the heavenly mingling
of melody and rhythm.

A beautiful instrument is something we admire, but, it is mute without someone to play it. It would not exist at all if it were not for its maker.

So it is with human beings who express or embody greatness. They are to be admired and appreciated because there is a beauty in their presence, just as there is in a flower or moonlight on the sea.

But something far greater has created the instrument of their body and mind, and that something is the Source of the inspiration that flows through them.
