But I was always coming here. I though about one of my favor... - Elizabeth Gilbert, Eat, Pray, Love

"But I was always coming here. I though about one of my favorite Sufi poems, which says that God long ago drew a circle in the sand exactly around the spot where you are standing right now. I was never not coming here. This was never not going to happen."
