“We create idols, a kind of escapism, instead of leaning into true hope. We desire to wait for love, but we end up seeking a counterfeit instead. The art of waiting depends upon our willingness to die to ourselves and trust in God. Art, poetry, and music all depend on waiting. There is no music without pauses. There is no art if we are unwilling to wait for paint to dry.” — Makato Fujioka
