Everything Has a Deep Dream
Here you will find several short essays, each of which challenges you to notice how your behavior is being affected by these times. We need to notice how we’re being influenced by the more negative trends of society, such things as speed, polarization, ceaseless activity, and no time for reflection. We also need to notice whether we’re responding with courage or silence. And we very much need to pay attention to what’s happening to our children and how this culture is influencing them.
Choose Life, only that and always, and at whatever risk. To let life leak out, to let it wear away by the mere passage of time, to withhold giving it and spreading it is to choose nothing.
—Sr. Ann Kelly
