“The most conspicuous thing about suffering is, as W.H. Auden once observed, its banality. The day is green, the sun is shinging, someone is eating, or opening a window, the torturer's horse is scatching its innocent behind on a tree, and in a mere second someone we love is dead.” SufferingLove IsBehindsSunTreeEatingWindowHorseGreenMereInnocentOpeningBanalityAuden Book:In Sierra Leone Source: In Sierra Leone
“In our worldly perceptions of Jesus, we tend to embrace the kindness of his love ('be encouraged') but not the discipline of his love ('and sin no more'). But with the whole scope of his love, or maturity in Christ, we begin relying on him for guidance where we would prefer him to walk beside us rather than behind us.” WholeJesusChristSinWalksLove IsBehindsKindnessDisciplinePerceptionEmbraceMaturityGuidanceWorldlyHis LoveScopeBe Encouraged Book:Killosophy Source: Killosophy

“Leaving love behind is never easy, for it also asks that we leave behind the part of ourselves that did the loving.

“Love is the soul of the world, though its body bleeds, and we must learn to bleed with it. Love is also the seed and milk and the fruit of the world, though we can partake of it in greed or reverence. We are born, we eat, and learn, and die. We leave a tracery of messages in the lives of others, a little shifting of the soil, a stone moved from here to there, a word uttered, a song, a poem left behind. I was here, each of these declare. I was here.” WorldLittlesSoulBodySongDiesLeftBornLove IsBehindsMessagesStonesMovedFruitGreedSeedsSoilMilkReverenceLeft BehindShiftingLives Of Others Book:Island of the World: A Novel Source: Island of the World: A Novel
