From the place where we are right
flowers will never grow
in the spring.
The place where we are right
is hard and trampled
like a yard, but doubts and loves
dig up the world
like a mole, a plow.

-Yehuda Amichai

Jesus is the embodiment of human possibility.
                                      - Marcus J. Borg
Every age should think of itself as the " axial age" the pivotal age.
