“Heaven lies around us in our infancy.”

“Angels are amongst us Angels all around If we quiet our minds, and open our hearts We will hear their heavenly sound”- Maria Schembri”

“The door to heaven is open to us at any time we are willing to accept that we are of absolutely no importance. The bars of our own hell - the “mind-forged manacles” as Blake put it - are our attempts to justify ourselves or prove our self-worth. Accept that none of this matters and we can see that heaven is all around us. It is there in a child’s smile, in the rain that waters the earth, even in the maggots that rise in new life from dead meat. All around us is evidence that life and love are eternal and unbroken by strife and suffering.”

“We are all blessed ones. Heaven is no longer in the clouds. It is right here, all around us, everywhere; we must only open our eyes to see it.”

“Our remedies oft in ourselves do lie,Which we ascribe to Heaven.”

“Character building begins in our infancy and continues until death.”
