Commission

SANDINE F. K. WADE
The task is to break outfrom the tight, constricted,egocentric circle of one's selfand reach out, latch on, catch on,with all one's mightto the calm, unhurried revolutions of Mind—to swing out into the clear, cool light of the stars,and gaze out in wonder at a new world,a new heaven and a new earth,upheld by the pillars of Principle,made beautiful by the music of Soul,strengthened by the courage and audacity of Spirit,sparkling with the vigor and freshness of Life,illumined by Truth,and synchronized to the deep, unfailingheartbeat of Love.
