Miracle on the Hudson

By this time I’m sure you’ve all heard the amazing story of “The Miracle on the Hudson.”  I was completely shocked that the plane was held in tact and the people were all safe.  I’m not going to try to put the event into any type of perspective because there are plenty of people who have done that already. (NY Times and The Guardian, both have great coverage) I will simply leave you with this…

“I will not die an unlived life.  I will not live in fear of falling or catching fire.  I choose to inhabit my days, to allow my living to open me, to make me less afraid, more accessible, to loosen my heart until it becomes a win, a torch, a promise.  I choose to risk my significance; to live so that which comes to me as seed goes to the next as blossom and that which comes to me as blossom, goes on as fruit.”
