Donald Miller Quotes

And if life isn't remarkable, then we don't have to do any of that; we can be unwilling victims instead of grateful participants.

Meditation should not be regarded as a learning process. It should be regarded as an experiencing process. You should not try to learn from meditation but try to feel it.
