A Sabbath Poem (Kelley)

by FaithHouseManhattan

CHOOSE LIFE

          ~ by Sister Helen Kelley

Choose Life

only that and always,

and at whatever risk.

To let life leak out, to let it wear away by

the mere passage of time, to withold

giving it and spreading it

is to choose

nothing.

(from Turning to One Another, by Margaret J. Wheatley,
