Quote by Anne Lamott

If you don't die of thirst, there are blessings in the desert. You can be pulled into limitlessness, which we all yearn for, or you can do the beauty of minutiae, the scrimshaw of tiny and precise. The sky is your ocean, and the crystal silence will uplift you like great gospel music, or Neil Young.

If you don't die of thirst, there are blessings in the deser

Summary

This quote emphasizes the idea that even in seemingly adverse situations, there are still blessings and opportunities for growth. In the desert, where one may face challenges like thirst, there is the potential to experience a sense of boundlessness and freedom. Additionally, there is beauty in paying attention to the smallest and most intricate details of one's surroundings. The vastness of the sky and the tranquil silence it brings can evoke a sense of profound upliftment and inspiration similar to the power of gospel music or the music of Neil Young.
