IF • Crooked

September 23, 2012 · 4 Comments

As different streams having different sources all mingle their waters in the sea,
so different tendencies, various though they appear,
crooked or straight,
all lead to God. 
~Swami Vivekananda

Pursue some path, however narrow and crooked, in which you can walk with love and reverence.
