We are all Mystics

"A mystic is not a special kind of human being; rather, every human is a special kind of mystic. I might just as well rise to this challenge and become that unique, irreplaceable mystic that only I can become.... If I fail to experience God in my own unique way, that experience will forever remain in the shadow land of possibility. But if I do, I will know life by the divine life within me."
