Use Words If Necessary

Saint Francis of Assisi is often credited with saying: “Preach the Gospel at all times. Use words if necessary.”

I’m the kind of person drawn to such notions. I like it for many forms of truth-telling. I like it for the humanness that I feel in giving myself to the mystery that is life.

Above are a few of my recent non-words inspirations. Something about beauty, ceremony, stillness, edges.

For inspiration.

  1. I had a whole thing yesterday in response to this post. And then it disappeared. I think it was good words, too. 🙂

    maybe there’s something about trying to offer words in response to a post about non-word inspirations?
