This is perhaps the most profound message you've shared all this Lent (and there have been many!). This is, I think, why I continue to try to find my way back to spirituality. It's not to find "a church", but, rather, to find something good and hopeful within the suffering of all these Holy Saturdays. You and Oby have given so much of yourselves these past 40 days. What a blessing it is to have been a part of it. I will deeply miss our daily "meetings".
I was sure that "the place just right" was the lyric from "Lord of the Dance," but actually it is a gift from the Shakers https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n-drWy6hAzU . Thank you both for a Lent filled with poetry, learning, comfort, and the complex gifts of words. With hope that together you find yourselves in the valley of love and delight.
Dear Javen,
This is perhaps the most profound message you've shared all this Lent (and there have been many!). This is, I think, why I continue to try to find my way back to spirituality. It's not to find "a church", but, rather, to find something good and hopeful within the suffering of all these Holy Saturdays. You and Oby have given so much of yourselves these past 40 days. What a blessing it is to have been a part of it. I will deeply miss our daily "meetings".
Happy Easter and much love to you both,
Richard
Javen, what a wonderful word. Resurrection not only from death to eternal life but also resurrection along the way. Stunningly beautiful ! Truly!
