| p108 | Life is life, as creation is creation. Each life is what it is, a thing of nature, given to storms and sunny days. One is born as bendable, as supple as the willow. Another life comes as brittle as a thorn bush. Each life comes into a situation and is a situation. Surrounded by creation each life is acted on by creation, influenced and impacted and dependent, a tree that lives and dies by the light of the sun and rain that fall from the sky. There are genetics that make one tall and one short, one dark and one light. There are unchangeables. A willow a willow, a thorn bush a thorn bush. All equally alive. All different. All the same only in terms of being alive. All one life. One in truth and one in stature. No two alike. |
