We live between the act of awakening and the act of surrender. Each morning we awaken to the light and the invitation to a new day in the world of time; each night we surrender to the dark to be taken to play in the world of dreams where time is no more. At birth, we were awakened and emerged to become visible in the world. At death, we will surrender again to the dark to become invisible. Awakening and surrender: They frame each day and each life; between them the journey where anything can happen, the beauty and the frailty.

(John O'Donoghue, 1956 - 2008)
