Sunday, January 4

wondering

foolishness, fragility and tears
insecurities and grace abounding
through the looking glass, darkly,
we peer through and into the hole
shrinking, growing, all so astounding
loving, being loved, full of longing
journeying, plagued with failure
constantly astounded by the fragility
and fortitude of the human spirit.
So easily broken, and yet.
astounding resilient* 
to the large and overwhelming.
In the image of our creator yet not Him.

*Resilience is the property of a material to absorb energy when it is deformed elastically and then, upon unloading to have this energy recovered
