Honest to God thoughts from an unconvinced Quaker psychologist
"Had she thought there was no meaning in life, no purpose, when God had gone?...'Well there is now,' she said aloud, and again, louder: 'There is now...We have to be all those difficult things, like cheerful and kind and curious and patient, and we've got to study and think and work hard, all of us...and then we'll build...the Republic of Heaven." Lyra, In 'The Amber Spyglass', Philip Pullman
There must be water around here somewhere!
"I laugh when I hear that the fish in the
water is thirsty.
I laugh when I hear that men go on
pilgrimage to find God."
Kabir
Thanks to Meredith from Graceful Presence.

I'm Ruthie, or Ruthie-annie and I come from Northern Ireland but I'm currently studying for a PhD in child psychology in England. I'm an internet geek who likes to cook, go to the gym, listen to music and eat chocolate. I like to say what I think with a little bit of passion and I like to discuss just about anything with anyone.

tut tut, that's not very incarnational (which is my controversial comment for the week)
Thanks. I needed to be reminded that God is everywhere, and evident in the miracle of existence itself.. And I'm stealing your cool fish pic for my own blog :)
