"The world breaks every one and afterward many are strong at the broken places. But those that will not break it kills. It kills the very good and the very gentle and the very brave impartially. If you are none of these you can be sure it will kill you too but there will be no special hurry."
~ Ernest Hemingway, A Farewell To Arms

"Our lives disconnect and reconnect, we move on, and later we may touch one another, again bounce away. This is the felt shape of a human life, neither simply linear nor wholly disjunctive nor endlessly bifurcating, but rather this bouncey sequence of bumping into's and tumblings apart."

Divine Milieu...U2 - Running To Stand Still...For Catherine...
And so she woke up
Woke up from where she was lyin' still.
Said I gotta do something
About where we're goin'...
Step on a fast train
Step out of the driving rain, maybe
Run from the darkness in the night.
Singing ah, ah la la la de day...
I see seven towers, but I only see one way out.
You gotta cry without weeping, talk without speaking
Scream without raising your voice.
You know I took the poison, from the poison stream
Then I floated out of here, singing
Ah la la la de day
Ah la la la de day.

So if your life has revolved around improverished gods that make promises but never deliver come to Him who provides all that you need; He will sustain you. His grace is sufficient for you.....He has taken the poison from the poison stream, Jesus has taken sin
ReplyDeletefrom the world.... let us sing.....and as the
first beatitude says, when I recognize my poverty
of spirit. Then all the riches of the kingdom of
heaven then become available to me..............
Ah la la la de day
