Welcome

Primitive religion is not believed, it is danced!

Arthur Darby Nock

Earth's crammed with heaven,
And every common bush afire with God;
And only he who sees takes off his shoes;
The rest sit round it and pluck blackberries.

we live in a world of labels
of adjectives

all around us
people are being defined

by gender
size
color
economic status
or illness

one of the interesting things about the Sacred
is how the adjectives mean nothing
nothing

it is as they don’t exist

there are only people
human people,
loved people
forgiven people

that man over there are the park bench
is not human refuse
that is some mother’s child
that is
a child of God
