Art is like masturbation. It is selfish and introverted and done for you and you alone. Design is like sex. There is someone else involved, their needs are just as important as your own, and if everything goes right, both parties are happy in the end.

The Ethanol Sermon

The Ethanol Sermon
by Jane Yoder-Short

Hear this word, you car owners of America
Who are constantly on the highways
Who consume fuel that's not yours
Who take corn from the needy for your tanks

You drive on land where bread should grow
You endlessly plant asphalt to increase your speed
You grow concrete so you can conveniently park
You turn justice to ethanol
And your righteousness becomes stale with pollution

Your rear-view mirror is blind
It fails to see the hungry children
To see the wars over oil
To see the land dying to feed your habit

But the time is coming when God will repair the fields
When hope will drip from the mountains
When vineyards shall sprout where asphalt once lay
And justice will fill the air

The horn has sounded
Turn now
Seek justice
look with new eyes in your rear-view mirror

(From geez magazine, "30 Sermons You'd Never Hear in Church")

It is time to rethink about the way we use gas...
What our cars costing the world...

but the past is not through with me.

化哀傷為舞蹈

「我們在生活中可能需要放手的，莫過於日常關係這方面。愛一個人意味著容讓對方以任何方式回應你，而不受你的控制。」

「愛最奧妙之處就是，你既可得著愛，也可能一無所得。每次你愛別人，你正冒這個險。」


盧雲著，《化哀傷為舞蹈——在逆境中尋得盼望》
