Are we not called to communicate
a mystery of hope
to those around us
by the lives we lead?
~ by Br. Roger of Taize, in "Thin Places" September/October/November 2010
We are quite naturally impatient in everything to reach the end without delay.
We should like to skip the intermediate stages.
We are impatient of being on the way to something unknown, something new.
And yet it is the law of all progress
that it is made by passing through some stages of instability—
and that it may take a very long time.
