Diversity of character is due to the unequal time given to values. Only through each other will we see the importance of the qualities we lack and our unfinished souls potential.
It is impossible to see how good work might be accomplished by people who think that our life in this world either signifies nothing or has only a negative significance.If on the other hand we believe that we are living souls Gods dust and Gods breath acting our parts among other creatures all made of the same dust and breath as ourselves and if we understand that we are free within the obvious limits of moral human life to do evil or good to ourselves and to the other creatures - then all our acts have a supreme significance. If it is true that we are living souls and morally free then all of us are artists. All of us are makers within mortal terms and limits of our lives of one anothers lives of things we need and use...If we think of ourselves as living souls immortal creatures living in the midst of a Creation that is mostly mysterious and if we see that everything we make or do cannot help but have an everlasting significance for ourselves for others and for the world then we see why some religious teachers have understood work as a form of prayer...Work connects us both to Creation and to eternity. pg. 316 Christianity and the Survival of Creation
In periods of rapid personal change, we pass through life as though we are spell-cast.
We speak in sentences that end before finishing.
We sleep heavily because we need to ask so many questions as we dream alone.
We bump into others and feel bashful at recognizing souls so similar to ourselves.
Prayer is not asking. It is a longing of the soul. It is daily admission of ones weakness. It is better in prayer to have a heart without words than words without a heart.
Film as dream, film as music.
No art passes our conscience in the way film does, and goes directly to our feelings, deep down into the dark rooms of our souls.
