Between the idea and the reality between the motion and the act falls the shadow for thine is the kingdom between the conception and the creation between the emotion and the response falls the shadow life is very long between the desire and the spasm between the potency and the existence between the essence and the descent falls the shadow for thine is the kingdom for thine is life is for thine is the this is the way the world ends this is the way the world ends this is the way the world ends not with a bang but a whimper.
Fall Reality Essence
Between the desire and the spasm, between the potency and the existence, between the essence and the descent, falls the shadow.
Fall Essence Shadow
We treat desire as a problem to be solved, address what desire is for and focus on that something and how to acquire it rather than on the nature and the sensation of desire, though often it is the desire between us and the object of desire that fills the space in between with the blue of longing.
Blue Space Focus
Desire is poverty. desire is the greatest impurity of the mind. desire is the motive force for action. desire in the mind is the real impurity. even a spark of desire is a very great evil.
Real Evil Mind
I get up every morning with a desire to do some creative work. this desire is made of the same stuff as the sexual desire, the desire to make money, or any other desire.
Morning Creative Desire
If desire causes suffering, it may be because we do not desire wisely, or that we are inexpert at obtaining what we desire. instead of hiding our heads in a prayer cloth and building walls against temptation, why not get better at fulfilling desire? salvation is for the feeble, that's what i think. i don't want salvation, i want life, all of life, the miserable as well as the superb.

Sacrifice, discipline and prayer are essential. we gain strength through god's word. we receive grace from the sacrament. and when we fumble due to sin - and it's gonna happen - confession puts us back on the field.
Prayer Sacrifice Discipline
Behold the child, by nature's kindly law, pleased with a rattle, tickled with a straw; some livelier plaything gives his youth delight, a little louder, but as empty quite; scarfs, garters, gold, amuse his riper stage, and beads and prayer-books are the toys of age. pleased with this bauble still, as that before, till tired he sleeps, and life's poor play is o'er.

The rosary is my favorite prayer. a marvelous prayer! marvelous in its simplicity and its depth. in the prayer we repeat many times the words that the virgin mary heard from the archangel, and from her kinswoman elizabeth.
Prayer Simplicity Rosary
We do not want to be beginners. but let us be convinced of the fact that we will never be anything else but beginners, all our life!
