Your words do nothing to curb my naivety, dear Denise. How simple. How obviously, scientifically true. Surely if the I Don’t Believe folks read this, they would understand. We are all connected. And when we get - or think we are - disconnected, we long for communion.

Thanks, Bridget. Aren’t the simplest things the truest?

Dear Denise, Once again you used your prophetic, poetic voice to name what should be obvious to all of humanity. However, humans seem to be more interested in division rather than union.Henri Nouwen said that when each of us was created, God kissed our souls and the longing we feel is the longing for God. Given your words, I add, If only we would recognize the Divine all around us to assuage the longing until we go Home again.
