“Come to the edge, He said. They said: we are afraid.
Come to the edge, He said.
They came. He pushed them, and they flew…”

Blessing on the feast of Francis of Assisi
Blessings on this feast of Francis of Assisi! In 2019, John and I had the joy of traveling to Assisi on pilgrimage to walk in Francis’ landscape. It was such a gift to connect more deeply to this amazing human being and his sister-in-spirit Clare.

lucy, I LOVE this quote, how perfect for the images too– you see I have now added it to the post. :-) I also love the Mechtild quote you shared the other day in another place. Thank you!
beautiful! here’s one of my favorite quotes:
“Come to the edge, He said. They said: we are afraid. Come to the edge, He said. They came. He pushed them, and they flew…” Guillaume Apollinaire.
Yes, most definitely :-) — for me at least, I seem to be called to live much of life at the edges and mostly it is a wondrous, but often challenging, place.
Is it at the edges that much of life’s growth takes place….?
