Quote of the Week: Makoto Fujimura

Deeply engaged reading leads to perceptual awakening, stimulation of the core of the intuitive and experiential...What reading and writing can teach us is a deeper empathy that leads us to desire the best for others who are entirely different from us, and to long to communicate with them.

-Makoto Fujimura, Refractions #26: The Epistle of Van Gogh

Death In The Polis

Some hunger for beauty.

Some hunger for answers.

Still some are hungry for moral realities.

There are hungers on every side.

To eat, to breathe
to beget
Is this all there is
Chance configuration of atom against atom
        of god against god
I cannot believe it.
Come, Christian Triune God who lives,
Here am I
Shake the world again.
