Sin


The greatest sin is the unlived life.

I'm not sure that I remember who said this, but this quote is very powerful. If someone knows, please comment.

  1. Hello Dan! I was so taken by that quote that I decided to do some digging on ol' Google to see if I could find its origin. From what I've read it appears to be from John O'Donohue, the Irish poet and philosopher.

    "We were sent into the world to live to the full everything that awakens within us and everything that comes towards us. Real divinity has a passionate instinct for creativity and the fully inhabited life--the greatest sin of all is the unlived life."
    --John O'’Donohue
