Love, actually

The virtues are an absence before they are a presence. Courage is the absence of fear, innocence of lust, humility of pride. And what is this purifying fecundity, this mothering absence? Love, actually.

Love is

Feelings of lack or insufficiency express an estrangement, an absence. Love is presence.

Holy spaces

Be the absence of wall, a window or door, so light shines in.

Joy

Joy is a state of absolute fearlessness. An absence cannot be validated theoretically.
