From within or from behind, a light shines through us upon things, and makes us aware that we are nothing, but the light is all.
~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
For most of us, there is only the unattended
Moment, the moment in and out of time,
The distraction fit lost in a shaft of sunlight,
Hints followed by guesses; and the rest
Is prayer, observance, discipline,
thought and action.
The hint half guessed, the gift half understood,
is incarnation.
