Loaves and Fishes by David Whyte




Loaves and Fishes

This is not
the age of information.
This is not
the age of information.
Forget the news,
and the radio,
and the blurred screen.
This is the time
of loaves
and fishes.
People are hungry
and one good word is bread
for a thousand.

Waking up to the gifts


Look around. What is supporting you at this moment. Does a chair hold you up? Does a lamp illumine the night? Is a computer holding your thoughts and memories? This blog will explore the notion that each of us is receiving more than we have noticed.

Look for more. Indeed, open your eyes and look around. Notice everything. Notice.
