"you want wisdom? grow a beard. you want patience? plant a tree."
last night i spent several hours learning from and listening to a man named Simeon, a Russian iconographer. his work is his life, and he has poured himself into it for 51 years. i have rarely enjoyed an evening as greatly as last.
"Remember--the root word of humble and human is the same: humus: earth. We are dust. We are created; it is God who made us and not we ourselves. But we were made to be co-creators with our maker."--Madeleine L'Engle
