David M. Ayres: The Spoon and the Bowl (or A Nihilistic Confession)

And yet it seems to me that writing, far from being an obstacle to perfection in my own life, has become one of the conditions on which my perfection will depend.

- Thomas Merton

...every time I overcome these fears and trust not only my own unique way of being in the world, but also my ability to give words to it, I experience a deep spiritual satisfaction. . . . What I am gradually discovering is that in the writing I come in touch with the Spirit of God within me and experience how I am led to new places.

- Henri Nouwen
