A Quote by Anne Hillman on anne hillman, the dancing animal woman, longing, being, be who you are, passionate, aliveness, love, yearning, real, depth, heart, authentic, and authenticity

I did not know I was on a search for passionate aliveness.  I only knew I was lonely and lost and that something was drawing me deeper beneath the surface of my life in search of meaning.  There is a hunger in people to go to those deep depths; to know that our lives are sacred; that our hearts are truly capable of love.  It is a yearning to be all the we can be.  A longing for what is real.

 I am always grateful tocome across quotes from The Dancing Animal Woman. You may be interested in a new book which just came out this year, Awakening the Energies of Love: Discovering Fire for the Second Time, based on the following words by Teilhard de Chardin. It took 30 years to live into Teilhard’s koan, 5 of these to write it. You can read more at www.annehillman.net Here’s the quote:

Someday, after mastering the winds, the waves, the tides and gravity, we shall harness for God the energies of love, and then, for a second time in the history of the world, humanity will have discovered fire.
