Thank you for Beauty in Brokenness. More and more to think about!
Always that notion of gratitude comes up and a wellspring of reverence even in the face of our darker nature. I’ve been watching documentaries a lot lately and I see that so much of what we think and value as “beautiful” is based on the culture at that hour.
“A man sees only what concerns him…. How much more, then, it requires different intentions of the eye and of the mind to attend to different departments of knowledge! How differently the poet and the naturalist look at objects!”
-Henry David Thoreau
I think that the trick is to be both the naturalist and the poet!! Thanks again!
