if you want to build a ship
don’t drum up people together
to collect wood and don’t assign
them tasks and work, but rather
teach them to long for the sea.
Antoine deSaint-Eexupery
if you want to build a generous life
. . . . congregation
don’t drum up people together
to hold meetings, develop plans
and assign them tasks and work,
first teach them
to long for the grace of God.
