There is only one sin, only one. And that is theft. Every other sin is a variation of theft... When you kill a man, you steal a life. You steal his wife's right to a husband, rob his children of a father. When you tell a lie, you steal someone's right to the truth. When you cheat, you steal the right to fairness.

If we come to sleep We are His drowsy ones. And if we come to wake We are in His hands. If we come to weeping, We are His cloud full of raindrops. And if we come to laughing, We are His lightning in that moment. If we come to anger and battle, It is the reflection of His wrath. And if we come to peace and pardon, It is the reflection of His love. Who are we in this complicated world?


When you look at your life, in a strange new room, maybe drowning soon, is this the start of it all?
