Come to the edge, He said.
They came. He pushed them, and they flew…”

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.
