And when we learn to read

the landscape of our fears,

and when we come to know

the terrain of every sorrow,

then will we turn

our fences into bridges

and our borders

into paths of peace.

The very least you can do in your life is figure out what you hope for. And the most you can do is live inside that hope. Not admire it from a distance but live right in it. … What I want is so simple: … Enough to eat, enough to go around. The possibility that kids might one day grow up to be neither the destroyers nor the destroyed. … Right now I’m living in that hope, running down its hallways and touching the walls on both sides. I can’t tell you how good it feels.

Barbara Kingsolver, Animal Dreams. Quoted in Inward/Outward January 9, 2008.

REFLECTION

O God, I am torn.
Do I rant or praise?
This world is so magnificent,
so flawed,
and I cannot divert
my gaze,
or heart,
from either.

 

Ted Loder, So magnificent…so flawed from Wrestling the Light: Ache and Awe in the Human-Divine Struggle, pg. 10
