gentleness and humor
 |
Gentleness is everywhere in daily life, a sign that faith rules through ordinary things:
through cooking and small talk, through storytelling, making love, fishing, tending
animals and sweet corn and flowers, through sports, music, and books, raising kids–
all the places where the gravy soaks in and grace shines through. Even in a time of
elephantine vanity and greed, one never has to look far to see the campfires of gentle
people. Lacking any other purpose in life, it would be good enough to live for their sake.
