"I used to think I knew everything. I was a "smart person" who "got things done," and because of that, the higher I climbed, the more I could look down and scoff at what seemed silly or simple, even religion. But I realized something as I drove home that night: that I am neither better nor smarter, only luckier. And I should be ashamed of thinking I knew everything, because you can know the whole world and still feel lost in it. So many people are in pain --no matter how smart or accomplished-- they cry, they yearn, they hurt.But instead of looking down on things, they look up, which is where I should have been looking, too. Because when the world quiets to the sound of your own breathing, we all want the same things: comfort, love, and a peaceful heart." #mitchalbom #havealittlefaith #bibliophile #bibliophileph #bookporn #bookgasm #bookstagram #booklovers #bookloversph #bookslover #fortheloveofbooks #book #books #bookshelf #onpoint #ditto
