“We gather around the table not to escape the world’s problems, but to escape the world’s answers.”
This is a my perhaps faulty memory of a quote from this morning’s sermon, of an unnamed Episcopal bishop. I wish I had the exact quote and knew whose it is.
But as I have come to expect from wise spiritual leadership, it is helpful, and I look to this type of insight precisely because it doesn’t follow the usual discussion. Instead of arguing about whether it is an escape, it says there is another solution. It presumes that there are other answers, and this is a way to look for them, to ask different questions.
Merely an appetizer, a foretaste of the feast to come.

Interesting article as for me. It would be great to read a bit more concerning this matter.
By the way check the design I've made myself London escort
That definitely is wisdom...the fact that there are other answers to the same questions and that things don't all look the same from the outside is one thing I find encouraging to remember.
