Divine fiat

The greatest power of them all, by a margin so vast it cannot be measured? Innocence. Yes, it’s despoiled everywhere. But still, by virtue of divine fiat, it is everywhere.

Divine child

The spontaneous act indicates the active presence of the divine child. He makes no plans, this One, and does not think. Some men orphan their capacity for surprise in order to get a-head.

The placidity of love

There is no truth in an emotion. The word emotion, derived from the Latin for agitate, indicates a disturbance. Truth is the awareness of an emotion. Love is not an emotion. It’s imperturbable.

Misinterpreting the evidence

I think I am getting older. I’m wrong. My body is getting older.

Time’s up

Consider the body as a tricked-out truck. It’s great. We love the options. But after a while it wears out, breaks down or becomes too costly to maintain. So we let it go.
