The silence is all there is. It is the alpha and the omega. It is God's brooding over the face of the waters; it is the blended note of the ten thousand things, the whine of wings. You take a step in the right direction to pray to this silence, and even to address the prayer to "World." Distinctions blur. Quiet your tents. Pray without ceasing.
~ from TEACHING A STONE TO TALK by Annie Dillard
May the Light that lighteneth Everyone come into this world
May the Light that lighteneth Everyone come into this world, pierce the darkness of the age, so that the tree of life may survive and bring forth new shoots!
