Emerson instructed us to "Make your own Bible. Select and collect all the words and sentences that in all your reading have been to you like the blast of truimpth out of Shakespeare, Seneca, Moses, John and Paul."
Following Emerson's guidance, I offer some of my favorite blasts of triumph. These quotes I draw from Rumi Daylight and other wisdom by Camille Adams Helminski.
