A Molting Bird

A small bird flew into my home by mistake. What began as an ordinary encounter soon revealed something far less ordinary: how quickly I judged what I did not expect, and how easily compassion disappears when beauty gives way to decay.

In the image of God

If our impulse to create reflects something of the divine, perhaps the search for meaning is woven into the fabric of existence itself.
