Perspective

One day it’s enough,
you feel, to view the world
through the common lens
of history, content
with no vision wider
than that of the obvious.

Next day, caught by
a tumult of longing, you search
among the straw and
chaff of things for the golden
corn of meaning.

From Fr Paul Murray’s Light at the Torn Horizon.
