Summary

This quote suggests that large calamities or significant events can often originate from seemingly insignificant or straightforward beginnings. Just as a massive flood can start with a small, modest water source, major issues or consequences can arise from seemingly trivial or minor occurrences. It serves as a reminder to not underestimate the potential impact of small actions, choices, or events, as they may lead to significant and far-reaching consequences.

It is our will That thus enchains us to permitted ill. We might be otherwise, we might be all We dream of happy, high, majestical. Where is the love, beauty and truth we seek, But in our mind? and if we were not weak, Should we be less in deed than in desire?

Every run is a work of art, a drawing on each day's canvas.

Every run is a work of art, a drawing on each day's canvas. Some runs are shouts and some runs are whispers. Some runs are eulogies and others celebrations. When you're angry, a run can be a sharp slap in the face. When happy, a run is your song. And when your running progresses enough to become the chrysalis through which your life is viewed, motivation is almost beside the point. Rather, it's running that motivates you for everything else the day holds.
