Monday night Dawn and I were watching TV. I can’t remember what we were watching, but it made me ask Dawn, “Do you have any dreams?” I asked her the question, but I must admit I was more interested in my own answer to the question. So i guess it was really a question for me! I imagine there are a lot of us out there looking for a dream – something to follow, something to get passionate about, something to create an identity around. I ran across a couple of qoutes that have helped me in answering this question. I thought I’d share them – maybe as a help to all of us. (It doesn’t answer the question, it might just help re-direct the question. Or maybe it does both?) The qoutes are:
“We can do not great things, only small things with great love. It is not how much you do but how much love you put into doing it>” -Mother Teresea (IN response – A sign above Shane Claiborne’s door – “Today . . . small things with great love (or don’t open the door.)”
“Don’t let your eyes adjust to the dark”
“So we mustn’t allow ourselves to detach from teh church . . . (she) managed to give birth to us and to give us enough of the truth that we have been able to ask the qeustions. . . “
I have some connecting the dots to do – I think I’ll need some help. But isn’t that the point.
