On Wednesday, after the election …
If it has been our practice to wake up each morning, or even some mornings, and say prayers to center ourselves in a mindset of gratefulness and hope;
If it is the tenor of our hearts to live lives of love — imperfect but authentically — and to advance the life of the world;
If we are content daily, and over a lifetime, to do small things well — keeping house, working with excellence, loving our fam

“the best portion of a good person’s life is ‘the little, nameless, unremembered acts of kindness and love.”
― Theo of Golden
― Theo of Golden
“for anything to be good, truly good, there must be love in it. I’m not even sure I know fully what that means, but the older I get, the more I believe it. There must be love for the gift itself, love for the subject being depicted or the story being told, and love for the audience. Whether the art is sculpture, farming, teaching, lawmaking, medicine, music, or raising a child, if love is not in it — at the very heart of it — it might be skillful, marketable, or popular but I doubt it is truly good. Nothing is what it’s supposed to be if love is not at the core.”

“It’s hard enough to define what art is, much less ‘good art.’ I wonder if there is such a thing. Maybe there are just good responses. But I guess if a work of art makes us see something familiar in a new way or makes us feel something we ought to have felt all along or shows us our place in the world more clearly, maybe then it qualifies as ‘good.’ If it makes us better somehow, maybe that’s what gives it value.”
