Click here for something artistically brilliant.
I love celebrating creativity! Hope this brings life to your heart as it has to mine.
Spoken words: from G.K. Chesterton, Orthodoxy
"The thing I mean can be seen, for instance, in children, when they find some game that they specially enjoy. A child kicks his legs rhythmically through excess, not absence, of life. Because children have abounding vitality, because they are in spirit fierce and free, therefore they want things repeated and unchanged. They always say, "Do it again!" and the grown up person does it again until he is nearly dead. For grown-up people are not strong enough to exult in monotony.
But perhaps God is strong enough to exult in monotony.
It is possible that God says every morning, "Do it again!" to the sun,
and every evening, "Do it again!" to the moon.
It may not be automatic necessity that makes all daisies alike.
It may be that God makes every daisy separately but has never got tired of making them.
It may be that He has the eternal appetite of infancy;
for we have sinned and grown old,
and our Father is younger than we."
