I am but a hole in the flute through which the Christ's breath blows, but listen to that music!
(attributed to an old Buddhist Priest)
From the first time I read this, it has stuck with me. I can think of no more perfect description of being 'right-sized' in this world. It reminds me that I am nothing, a hole, in the grand scheme of things. At the same time, I am an integral part of the symphony of life, without which the whole tune changes. A paradox captured in just a few words!
